Light at the end of the tunnel

It's seems it's been a long time coming but we're beginning to see the light at the end of the tunnel so to speak.

My son Lachlan will be graduating from Kindergarten tomorrow, a year ago this was far from being a reality and a year and a half ago we couldn't have even contemplated this happening. So now a year and a half on he will be graduating with his peers. It's a tremendous feeling, I'm finding it hard trying to find the right words to express how I'm feeling right now.

The Early Intervention Centre, AEIOU, has been amazing for Lachlan. The program has been exactly what he needed.
Who knew after being at AEIOU for a year and a half I'd have his Teacher, Therapists and Carers telling me frequently how ready for school my boy is, he truly is ready.

Tomorrow is going to be a big day for all of us who are involved with AEIOU, parents, grandparents and most of all the kids. We have a fun day organised, a day they will hopefully remember for years to come. I think tears will be plentiful tomorrow. I'm over the moon, but at the same time it's like we're losing a life support, because AEIOU really has been like a life support for us, especially for Lachlan.
But chin up because a new journey begins now as we follow the yellow brick road, haha just had to throw that in there. But in all honesty what lies ahead has me excited and feeling positive!

Lachlan we're so very proud of you, you have so worked very hard over the last 22 months since your journey began, we love you so much.
You really are amazing, just the way you are!!

Early Intervention is so very important!

I have high hopes for his future, the skies really are the limit.
