I had a scary moment while waiting to see my therapist but it worked out great. Some have said that the first people to "make you" as a TS will be kids. So of course on the day I got there early there were to little kids in the waiting room waiting for their mom. I know because I asked the little girl. Turns out she was in with my therpist. One was a boy about 6 I'd say and the other a girl about 5. They both smiled when I came in and sat down. When I said hi to the little girl she said hi back. Well we had about a 15 minute wait until my appointment time. Well the little girl had to tell me about the magazine she was looking at, then about the boo boo on her foot. I told her to be sure to tell her mom about it when she came out. Eventually she found some blocks and was going to stack them. She started with some big legos and was telling me how she was going to build a wall up to the ceiling. Then she found these smooth, cube blocks about 4" long. She told me about a game you can play with them. She showed me that you take three and lay them side by side and then take three more and lay them accross the first three but perpendicular and then another three and so on. So guess what, she asked me to get down on the floor and play with her. So I got down on the floor and helped her stack blocks until her mom and the therapist came out of the office and saw us. The mom thanked me for helping occupy her little girl and I said sure thing and went into the office with my therapist. As soon as the door was closed she said, "well, you passed". Indeed. That is like the final test as far as I'm concerned. Looks like I'm good to go. You know? I enjoy watching babies and little children a lot more than I used to. They never fail to put a smile on my face. What's all that about? I never even used to notice them.
Yes, kids to the dandest things. :-)
I am sincerely,
Laura Catherine
