Funny how I started a blog about myself titled, "Maybe I am different" and it ended up turning into Micah updates. Whatever the case, I am very excited to share with you all his most recent update!
Today was his 3 year evaluation with the school board to see if he still qualifies to receive special education services. Although they only determined that more testing is needed, I do have some wonderful news to share from the meeting:
1. Micah is on grade level. With only minimal help to no help at all from the special education teacher and a little more time given to complete some tasks, he is going to pass Kindergarten!!
2. Micah is very advanced in math!!! I can't tell you how much that makes me smile. He has never excelled in anything.
3. He is making progress with his social interaction/anxiety.
Now some not so fun updates:
4. Micah has started stuttering real bad.
5. His eyesight is very bad and could get worse. We have to keep one eye dilated continually.
6. His most recent diagnosis is: general anxiety disorder, fine motor delay, and language disorder.
Well, in conclusion let me just say how pleased I am with his progress. He talks, he asks a million questions a day, he will speak to people if you tell him to (working on looking at them, lol), he has friends, he smiles and laughs, he is closing the developmental gaps and making good grades! He is truly blowing our minds with his progress. Thank you all for taking the time to care for him. We love you!
