Hi,
I have two cool things to tell you about the Po. Firstly, she is making progress on the trike. Yesterday was a beautiful sunny afternoon and we went down to the school. I took the bell off the bike as it was a bit distracting, and used it as an incentive. When Rosie managed a couple of revolutions of the pedals she got to hold the bell and ring it for a few minutes. She hasn't quite worked out how to make the bike go all the time, but there were four or five moments where she managed it and made the trike roll for a few feet. I didn't expect her to make such fast progress, so it's all very promising.
The second thing is that this morning before school she picked up the cued articulation sheets that the speech therapist gave us. Rosie was sitting at her mirror and she studied the pictures for a while before looking at herself and quite clearly making the sign and noise for "T". She sat doing that for a few minutes, looking at the pictures of the therapist and then looking back at herself and making "T". It was very deliberate and clear.
love
Eleanor
