My Gym

Adeline was invited to a birthday party at My Gym. It was a classmate from her developmental classroom that was celebrating his birthday. I was curious to see how all the children would do in an unfamiliar environment, including The Belle. The children seem very typical in their IU classroom because it is very regimented and predictable which helps children who aren't neurotypical appear as if they are.

Adeline was hesitant at first and yelling, "No, No, Mommy's car." But after a quick trip the to the bathroom, she was on her game. She followed directions, was willing to try out all of the equipment and be cute and pleasant while doing so.

Alex and I were able to accompany Adeline without her sister's in tow, which was extremely exciting for us. Adeline is such a joy, always happy and willing. We received lots of compliments because she is that kid that draws people to her. She is quite but some how penetrates a group with her peaceful and joyful disposition.

What a treat it was to focus our undivided attention on Adeline and recognize and all she has to offer. She is one fantastic kid! I am one lucky Mommy!!
