Focus Shift... Again

I'm truly amazed at how life works. Things are calming down with Stevie now. His treatment is going great. He's scooting around the house and trying out the sitting and spinning thingamajigger. I wouldn't be surprised if he's gained back the vast majority of progress lost by the time a year is up. I'm not going to expect it, but I wouldn't be surprised.

I'm not going to mention the diagnosis. I was. I almost did. But I just don't feel comfortable doing it, so I won't.

I know that sounds snotty, especially in this age when everything is so open online. No one expects privacy anymore. I don't. But I've also learned to go with my gut and my gut says no.

I'm getting off topic.

The point is that things with Stevie are calming down and that means I can once again focus on Rachel and Sarah.

Quick update on them: Rachel is becoming very articulate. Unfortunately, her pronunciation doesn't match the greater ability her speech is gaining. Something to work on.

Sarah is doing very well, though all the stuff with Stevie means she's regressed a bit in her behavior: she tends to be a little less flexible than before. However, she's doing great with math and we're working on grammar now. Mad Libs work well with her sisters, but I think she needs a more structured approach. I'll be looking into that when I can.

I've also decided to look more into freelance writing. I won't detail that in this blog, though I may include links. We'll see.

Our family is in a huge transition. I'm looking forward to seeing how things will look like in a year from now. Mr. Vinca as well. Don't know what else to say, so I won't.

Geez. I really do sound snotty today.
