Our September in the Den

 Glory was granted a wish from Kids Wish Network !!  

They gave her a huge box of stuff plus 2 gift cards $500 for home depot and $500 for Michaels 


She picked out a sandbox.....




A trampoline ....



tons of craft stuff ....





Thank you KidsWishNetwork!!!!

---------------------------------------------------------

Fun in the garden ...




making fresh mint tea for teatime and poetry


-----------------------------------------------------------
Having fun training her service dog and taking walks to the beach



----------------------------------------------------------
We had some work done in our kitchen and Glory
got to see and help in the process of installing a new floor






-----------------------------------

Lots of walks to the beach




-------------------------------------------------------
She loves her new 'Where in the world is Carmen Sandiego' game




-----------------------------------------------------------


We joined an online homeschool Science Co-op, the first unit study is Botany! 








---------------------------------------------------------------------


Science with daddy




------------------------------------------------------------------

daddy got her a kitten





---------------------------------------

So much fun outside





-----------------------------------------------

We didn't have a washer/dryer for the first few months .. so she learned how
to wash her clothes by hand .. we are now really enjoying having one






------------------------------------

Learned a new Japanese math technique with daddy

(and this morning he taught her about square roots!)







Glory is really thriving in her new safe environment. Even though we are still paying
double rent because the apartments did not accept her specialists 'emergency vacate letter' its worth 
knowing that she is safe and not being put at risk for COVID. 

Along with the Science Co-op every other thursday, she has also been enjoying her PANS support group on Tuesday evenings, and her LGBTQ support group on Wednesday evenings. She continues
also to spend time with her friends online on zoom, facebook messenger, and xbox live. She is also
still enjoying her online school program and homeschooling .. she is doing very well.
