It has been a long time

It has been a long time since my last post but I wanted to say that this year Raphael has undergone intensive speech pathology and his talking skills have take a couple of huge steps forward.

It is obviously still hard work for him to understand what people are saying to him but he is an eager learner and all the hard work that everyone is investing in him is being reflected well in his progress.

First RIDBC teleconference

Annie took Raphael to his first RIDBC teleconference session this morning. I was not there so I can't comment on what went on. I believe that Annie recorded the session though so I'll have a casual listen at home tonight.

Early Learning

Annie started to take Raphael to the Early Learning programme run by the Tasmanian Department of Education.
