Our Graduate


Not too long after we returned from China, we became acquainted with the speech therapist at our local elementary school. "Miss Colleen" became our go-to friend when we had a speech related question or just needed encouragement. When MK turned three, we crossed our fingers that Miss Colleen would become MK's therapist and, as luck would have it, she did! For almost two years, we have worked night after night to accomplish our speech goals set for MK by Miss Colleen. And for the same amount of time, Miss Colleen has offered her smiling face and open arms each and every time we have gone in for therapy - twice a week! Miss Colleen and MK are kindred spirits, each loving their girly-girl fashion and bling. Though we were so pleased to hear that MK has met all of her speech goals and no longer needs speech therapy, we were all sad to say goodbye - the good news is that we are more than positive Maddox will be entering Miss Colleen's sessions next year so we asked her just to save our spot and we would see her soon:)
To MK: Sweet girl, you have come so far. You have been home for 3 years and 7 months. We love watching you grow and we love these special days when we get to cheer you on and celebrate your accomplishments!
