Firstly, the Moosh had a vision and hearing evaluation this morning because his preschool teacher is having some trouble understanding him. I've honestly been worried about his speech for some time, so I decided to call the school district and have him evaluated. The beginning of the eval did not go well, neither the diagnostician nor the speech-language pathologist could understand what he was saying. However, by the end of the visit, the speech-language pathologist was on the fence about sending him on for further testing. However, the diagnostician was worried about what she called his "connected speech" so they are making sure that the next evaluator takes a language sample. We'll see how it goes.
In other news, the Moosh's preschool teacher informed me that 2/3 of the 3-year-old class has the flu, as well as one of the little girls in his class. NOOOOOOO! That is that very last thing in a long list of last things that we need right now. Fie. Fie on the flu.
Hope you are having a successful (non-eventful) sick watch. We're on sick watch, too, after the friends we saw on Sunday called on Monday to say their daughter has strep. Then emailed on Tuesday that she was still sick but it might not be strep after all. Hmmm. Need to call them!
Good luck with the speech evaluation. I supposed it is a good thing that his speech is not at the OMG terrible level, but I hope you can get some services if you think he needs them.
