When Vickie's sister was starting to leave this afternoon I lifted Vickie's hand up a little bit and asked her to wave to Janice. She gave a little wave with her fingers.
She still knows how to play to the room. Later I put a pen in her hand, told her she needs to learn to hold it so she can write her thoughts down for us so we will know what she needs. At first she fumbled with it but held on. When it fell out of her hand she began reaching for it with her fingers. It's always the little things that really count.
