Another assessment

Yes! It’s another video! I told you I’m obsessed with iMovie – but getting an iPhone has really allowed me to be creative AND present when it comes to the kids. I love my Canon 550D but it’s so clunky to carry around everywhere….

Onto the video. Today was Jovie’s second & final occupational therapy assessment.

In the video, Jo is wearing kid sized headphones and listening to some calm music. Surprised she kept it on for as long as she did – she looked so cute 🙂

The session didn’t go as well as last week – I could tell she was tired and fed up within 15 minutes of getting there but we persevered as much as we could in the hour. I only shoot a few seconds of video at a time while I’m there, the rest of the time I’m partipating in the session. I got to go on the swing today! It was awesome but Jovie did not want and almost threw herself off it. A green teletubby toy saved the day but Jo wanted to leave so we ended it early today.

And as soon as we got home, she was like this –

Poor baby girl.

We have a parent meeting in 2 weeks to discuss what the OT recommends. I think whatever she says, it’s going to be a tough road for all of us. I’m very aware that Jovie has her problems with communication (amongst other things) but I would go to the ends of the Earth to help my daughter so I’m just eager to get started.
