Memphis Botanical Gardens

I went to the Memphis Botanical Gardens. They have a new thing just for kids. I loved it- especially the weather place where it rained! I love water!

It's that time again!

It's time once again for the LeBonheur Pumpkin Run! It will will be Saturday, October 10. We will once again have a Team Nola Gracyn and will be ordering shirts! Please check back for more information soon!

I'm a big school girl

I started my first day of MOSD on Thursday. I didn't cry- My Mommy & Daddy did though. Thank goodness they held it together until they got into the car! I did all kinds of great things my first 2 days of school. My teacher's name is Ms. Sue and she is a happy and loving lady! Ms. Schwartz is the director and she is beyond helpful. . In fact, Mommy & Daddy said they have not met someone who is not helpful and kind at my school. My speech therapist's name is Ms. Courtney and my listening therapist's (aural habilitation) name is Ms. Nathalie. I will be learning to listen and talk. I should get my hearing aids in the next week or so.
Mommy & Daddy say I am doing such a great job already!

MOSD

Nola will be attending the Memphis Oral School for the Deaf starting August 13. She has been fitted for her hearing aids and the ear molds even have glitter in them! Visit their website www.mosdkids.org to learn more about this AMAZING school where deaf children are talking.

You can also help their cause by purchasing a brick that will be placed on the sidewalk outside of the school. http://www.mosdkids.org/Details.cfm?ProdID=37&category=0
