Noah's last day of preschool is next Thursday. I guess between now and then they are just trying to fill the days. Today was "crazy hair day" for his preschool class. Noah wanted a mohawk, so we did our best to give him the look he desired. Here's how it turned out.

Noah's been doing so well this year. Because he was premature (at least we think that's the root cause) he's been delayed in speech and some motor skills. We also are starting to think he has some sensory issues, which means that his brain doesn't process sensory things (touch, noises, bright lights, balance, movement, etc.) the way most people do. He gets overwhelmed very easy. Anytime we're in a place with crowds and noise, he freaks out, things like that.

So, our pediatrician gives us a referral for a speech therapist (he had a great one in MS and we were sad to leave her!) and physical therapy evaluations.

However, insurance won't cover those evaluations. We are now trying to go through the school system, but no one there will call me back.

Oh the joys of trying to get help for your child!
