Bright boy...

Our little man is a bright little thing! He has been surprising us lately. 
Jack came home from school with a picture. Jack was sitting in his wheelchair at a table and there were three boys around him. The were showing off their flowers they planted. I asked Jack if he knew any names. He pointed to two of the boys and said Toby for one and Tyler for the other. I asked his aide the next day if he was correct.  He was!!! 

This morning I had on a shirt with the word USA. Jack was playing with the letters. I asked him what the letters were before saying them myself. He pointed to each letter and said: S sun, A apple, U umbrella.

I'm so proud of our little man.

Jazzin' it Up with Jack and Friends

Ok...so I forgot to share that Jack came home on Saturday, March 29. He's doing well and finally back to himself.
I'm writing to share the newspaper article written about Jason's music department at Lincoln Land Community College.

Lincoln Land Community College hosted Jazzin' it Up with Jack and Friends: and interactive concert for special needs children and their families.

The concert was a success and fun was had by all! Jack wheeled himself all over the place for the instrument petting zoo and the children (and some adults) had fun playing and dancing during the concert!
