So at A's sports intervention this evening, A peddled his trycycle independently for the VERY first time. It was his smaller tricycle which I have donated to the sports intervention team but A tends to use it as a leisure time activity or for waiting.
I somehow feel overwhelmed almost chocked with tears whenever my A makes seemingly insignificant yet an important stride towards life :-)
His sports sir also reported that he insisted on having a go at the skating board, and with his sir's help he tried to use the skate board.
And not to forget roller skates, well I was honestly a bit skeptical being very firm initially with his Sir expressing displeasure stating he was being over ambitious and I'd rather have him go slow. But he had a valid reason when he said he needed to break the monotony also he seemed confident, so I just let him be the boss.
And guess what? From a cranky non compliant skater A transitioned within two sessions to 'A pehenegaa skates'.
The best part of this intervention is that his Sir wants no interference, so I leave A in his care and sit in the car with my book, prayer beads ... what can be so comforting. This place is near a lovely park, so I will bring my walking shoes and indulge in some physical intervention for myself.
And from the fine motor factory, A is able to make a beautiful fish complete with details and designs, and he makes a cat complete with all the minute features, he also has a go at making mamaa, papa, didi and A and his house is a small circle attached to a bigger circle which is home to Nani, masi, Maamu, Maami, Yajur and Atharvee. Says something about his emotional need.
Am glad we are working in the direction that is totally aligned to his emotional need.
And the alphabets have all been achieved only they aren't all that well aligned.
Now we are only left with long pending language targets and getting rid of the bottle (eesh, sorry you are allowed to get judgmental about my laid back mothering, but in my defense when bottle goes away, pediasure goes away, I can't afford that right now, not till his oral protocol has made huge strides, but promise to have it off by the year end).
