Skip Jumping

Since we got back from Tassie, it has been non stop busy. It is just nuts. We have OT sessions 2 or 3 times a week, plus 2 hourly sessions at home with therapressure brushing, motor planning exercises, core muscle strength building and fine motor strength work. I am exhausted. Very little schooling is happening and I am slowly becoming ok with that. If he was at school I would have to keep at home for this time to get these therapies done anyway. So I shall be at peace with the little we do.

But the challenging thing is, I am needing to be much more creative with how we do our learning. Mr I is being sent nuts by this therapy, it is almost like he has had a stroke and someone is slipping him drugs. He has regressed several years in a lot areas, it is painful. But I am told very common with this therapy and all will return to normal in a few weeks. I pray it is sooner rather than later.

So for now we need to be much more active, using our whole bodies for EVERYTHING. This mumma is tired. So today we did some skip count jumping. The kids loved it, this mumma regrets not getting dressed and putting a bra on first.

Lots of jumping and lots of counting was had.




I hope to get back into the blogging soon, but I barely have time to drink a cuppa at the moment.
