Hi Everyone,
Sorry this didn't go through last night, I guess I shut down before it was sent.
Mom had a great morning. She was up when I got there. She was very talkative. I started to get her ready and then it was time for her shower. When she was done form her shower she was still awake and alert. I did some number concepts with her since this seems to be an area where she has the most difficulty. We cut out "piglet" counters and placed them on a work sheet according to the corresponding number. She laughed when she saw the pigs. I asked her if she still liked pigs and she made a face like yes how cute. She was so intent on cutting out each counter. We did one more number sheet together. I then gave her the buttons and container but she had a difficult time figuring out how to do it. She worked it out and eventually put every button in the container. Next we did the sewing card. I poked the lace through the card and had her pull the cord through with a big arm motion. I explained to her everything we were doing and why and she was more apt to participate. We also did writing with the wipe off board. I drew the letter A over and over with her, then she traced the A. I cleaned off the board and then she made an A all by herself! the funny thing was that she didn't make it the way we were practicing. I then placed a bolt in her left hand and handed her a nut and she placed it on and then turned the nut all by herself. Dad was there to see her with the nuts and bolts.
I left and dad stayed with her. THey watched TV and held hands. She stayed awake with him for a while. Terry came and said that mom fell asleep and stayed asleep for most of her visit. Dad and Terry put mom to bed for the night.
Peace and Love,
~Claud
