I had to take my granddaughter to my therapy session with me yesterday.

I've had my granddaughter with me all week because of school vacation and my daughter needed to work and of course I'm all she has to babysit. Last week at my therapy session I told my therapist all about Vicky and was going to skip this weeks session but she said it was ok to take Vicky with me. Vicky had Downes Syndrome and I knew she would be fine sitting there and really not paying attention or even understanding what we were talking about but most of the session was spent with my therapist talking to her and not me! To my surprise Vicky did more talking to her than she has to me all week and I was so happy to see her answering my therapists questions not to mention my therapist keep saying what an angel she is and how smart she is...lol. I'm sure the whole thing was a great ego builder for Vicky and I know that's something that's good for her even though that's all I do is praise her and tell her how much I love her. At one point Vicky did "shut down" and got quiet so my therapist decided to play like she left the room and we talked about my problems...lol...but that didn't last long because Vicky "came back" and started to talk again. All in all it was one of the best therapy sessions I've had in a long time!!
