Back story. When Micaela was about 3 and a half, we got concerned about her speech patterns and the fact that we were the only ones who could understand her. Even then, that understanding was ...oh, less than 75% of the time. Other people without daily contact with her needed a translator. So we took her to the elementary school to have her tested by the speech therapist there. She's been in speech classes ever since and she will be 8 this fall. So 4 years, twice a week, etc, etc.
Today, I had a meeting with her speech teacher. I figured it was your standard end-of-the-school-year, how she's doing, plans for next year thing.
No.
They RELEASED her!! She's finished! No more speech classes!!!
I grinned all the way home.
