Cheers to a New Year


It's been a very warm January so far. We have had a lot of days nearing 70 degrees! 
This has given us a lot of time to spend outside although we are also really looking
forward to being able to enjoy some snow and snow dragon/dinosaur making. 
Glory was also just approved for a Wish from Kids Wish Network, more on that later.

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

Art

Glory finished her canvas from art class. She felt it looked like a jungle and needed dinosaurs
so we found and printed out some outlines to print out as stencils to add them in.  
It is especially pretty with the sunlight shining through it. 


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

History
Glory wrote a phrase in Inuktitut 
(Inuit Eskimo written language)




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

More Art
It's been so nice we have been doing 
a lot of activities outside, 
including art.




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

Even More Art
Time4art curriculum
Her doART assignment was to draw pictures of 
friends and family as animals that matched their
individual unique personalities.
She drew John as a computer :)

Glory participated in a research study for PANS


We were surprised to find out there was a money gift for participating, we used 
it to get the elipticle machine Glory has been wanting for exercising.


_______________________________________________

Time4learning is so funny and she enjoys it so much she is a whole
month ahead in language arts because even though her lessons for the 
day are done she doesn't want to stop so she does more than the schedule.

PANS peer support group every Tuesday/Saturday

Since it was extra warm out Glory earned some extra allowance by bathing Maple.

Beach Weather







She found a cool piece of drift wood that we brought home.






Glory discovered something new !  We did some research
and we feel she has found something called a 'Sea Salp Egg' 




a picture of a Sea Salp and its egg. They are called the 'Jelly beans' of the sea.



She drew a picture of them




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

She is continuing to amaze us with her scores in Online School, 
she's never been graded before but is keeping up just wonderfully.





She spent the last week on Doxycycline .. her comment this morning was 
'WOW guys look i can write numbers !'  What a drastic improvement!



Glory had an appointment yesterday at her immunologist. Due to the improvement we showed
her and the difference in her writing before and after Doxycycline she has decided to add
another antibiotic to her schedule soon once the last few of her teeth come in. It's called Minocycline.
She also gave her a nice book about the immune system and primary immunodeficiency diseases. 



Before


After


On the way home from the doctor we stopped at AC/Moore and got her a Geode kit.
