Seth is officially enrolled!

Thank  you, Everyone, for your support! Details to come soon. First, I need to let the dust in my brain settle. I just had to come on to announce that Seth is officially enrolled in the Summer Enrichment Camp (Level 2- Paid in Full) & a deposit has been left to secure his position in Level 3 for next year.

He is so changed since we started him at this school and the Speech Therapists have been the main help in all of this. He has access to 6 Speech Therapists throughout the course of his 4 hour day- not to mention all the teacher's assistants. More to come later! (AND more free patterns!)

I do sell some patterns on Etsy & Storenvy, but you can know that all donations (button to the right) and all proceeds go to his therapies. This is all for my family!

A little note about progress with Seth

With deadlines drawing nearer, GOD shows HIMself more & more each day. I spoke to the school admin today & left a deposit. They were not aware that I wanted Seth in summer camp?? Nonetheless, there is one spot left in each class.

I sold a baby afghan, a cat, some patterns... in just 4 days. In faith, I took all the money we had collected with the application and said, "I don't expect you to save his spot, but this goes toward whatever he qualifies for next." They smiled and said, "Don't worry. It will all work out fine."

Next week, Seth evaluates in a class of 10 children with 2 teachers- the lead being a Speech Pathologist. The same week, 4 other children his age- not already enrolled at the school- are evaluating for the summer program & next year. I am not worried at all. GOD has given me so much peace. Whatever happens at this point is HIS will.

Aside from continuing to kick out product, Seth's birthday is coming up. He wants his room decorated in a solar system theme and is excited to be the big 5! I am dumbfounded by the contributions that continue to trickle in from family & friends along with the free patterns I have posted on my blog.

Thank you ALL for your support & prayers. In 15 days, Will gets paid and we are just going on faith to give them everything they need to secure this spot for Seth. I believe in my heart that if he were not in this school, he would be very violent at this point & possibly hurting himself & others.

GOD's mercy has saved us from the lion's den.

So Close & Yet So Far

Approximately $400 away from summer camp for my sweet boy. His ITP (Individual Treatment Plan) from the school got to me today. It states that he is improving with the one-on-one assistance, but requires outside individual OT. 

The company we evaluated with last, wants $110/hr. There isn't any way possible we can do that. That is why we have him in this school. We cannot afford Speech Therapy and the school is less expensive than the actual Speech Therapy even though classes are taught by Speech Pathologists. For the school, it is $15 an hour. You can't beat that for Speech Therapy!

I meet with his teacher tomorrow. Amazing how nervous we can get about things that are beyond our control.
