Noa had a great weekend. Overall in a good mood. She loves being back at school. On Friday, she seemed quite tired after her "good week" at school. You can see in the photo below, she is dozing off with a water bottle in her hands.

The big event for Noa this week was getting a new desk. We wanted her to have a work space that allowed her to move from one activity to another on her own a bit more. She was VERY happy with the desk and spent quite a bit of time there (mainly playing the piano and sorting coins) but I showed her around to where other items are and she helped to pick where some went. I'm brailling items for her as well so she can find them. She even has a built in cup for doggy to sit in, and she likes the star stickers. The white board directly in front of her is magnetic. ​

Noa also did really well as horseback riding this weekend. She is preparing for the Special Olympics which they will do with videos of the riders. She did a great job turning right and left, stopping and telling the horse to walk.  We're working on actually giving the horse a little kick to walk (she moves her foot but it's not quite a kick), and also working on keping her head up which is also a challenge.
In other news, we have a few new clips of the mystery sign. Noa was doing something a bit different this weekend - starting the "c" part of the word over her head and then moving it down. It looked a bit more like a sign that I had some vague memory of but couldn't quite remember. In the top clip she uses one hand, but in the bottom clip she uses both hands.
She did a bit better standing up out of the stroller this weekend. Of course we also started every walk with a long discussion about standing up "fast fast" after stroller. While we still had delays and mysterious demands, the situation as a whole was a bit less emotional and not as lengthy or difficult to get past.
