Little Daredevil


We have a little daredevil.  Well, we actually have two of them, but I am writing about the littlest.  I mentioned before that Callie loves to swing (the higher, the better).  She also gets a kick out of being bounced & thrown around on the couch and enjoys any other gentle roughhousing you can come up with.  She laughs and laughs, and then signs "more"!  At therapy Callie was recently introduced to their trapeze and she LOVES it.  Her therapist holds her hands on the bar, swings her out over a big pillow and then lets her drop.  Callie originally did this as part of an OT session.  Now she begs her PT and ST for the same activity since we work in the same gym right next to the trapeze for all of her sessions.  The other day during speech therapy she kept eyeing the bar, made her way across the mat to it, and signed "up".  There was no way to resist her clear request!
