Winter Vacation!

Noa had a great winter break, thanks in great part to Aunt Paté (and yes, Noa pronounces it much like the liver spread) who came up from Maryland for the week to help up since Mommy was still very much laid up.

Noa was thrilled to spend the week with Paté , who she hadn't seen for over year (and who used to be an ASL interpreter, so they already have a special connection.) She very quickly decided she wanted to do almost everything with Paté and did a wonderful job of communicating with her and was, for the most part, very patient when Paté didn't precisely understand what she was asking for or what order things "should" be in. Noa spent most of the week with one hand or the other just sitting in the "p" position.

​Much of the week was spent just relaxing (swings, hammocks, going on walks with Daddy, sorting shapes and coins, reading braille, cleaning her room, stretching). Paté gave Noa a hair cut and later in the week, when we finally got her interested in doing some table work, she spent quite a bit of time using the brailler - in fact she didn't want to stop brailling!
BOTHER HIGHLIGHTS: before Aunt Paté's arrival, we celebrated Noa's birthday. She got two "blanket sweaters" - one blue and one brown, and a gold bracelet which she wore for a couple of hours and then put on Electra Monkey (with all the other bracelets) - and it's still there. She also got some more scrunchies with scarves attached, I put a few in her duffle bag. 

Of course, Noa is excited about getting back to school too and on Sunday morning was already talking about getting back to school.
