Roma’s First Halloween Dance
Roma had SO much fun at her first "REAL" dance!! She loves MUSIC and she loves to dance. She never sat down and she danced until they turned the lights on at the end of the night. She was shakin' her hips and gettin' her shoulders almost down to the floor sometimes she had so much excitement. Once she realized the pizza was limited she was all energy into dancing. She really likes her gym teacher Troy and he is SO good to Roma! This is him in the Toga outfit. He was the DJ for the night. Roma was a bit disappointed when she didn't get a prize for the most creative costume or most beautiful costume (mom needs to work on that for next year). Once Troy heard she was sad he ran up, got on the microphone and said, "we have one last announcement to make..."I almost forgot, THE MOST BEAUTIFUL PUMKIN COSTUME GOES TO...ROMAKAY, would you come up and get your crown?" He gave her his crown that went with his costume :)!! He is amazing.
Roma is getting SO many opportunities that she would not normally get to participate in and feel a part of. I know there was a 6th grade dance the same night at the school she would have attended this year if she didn't go to Anne Carlsen this same night...I just can't imagine that she would have had the same kind of night that she had here. It is things like this (and so many more things) that keep us as family assured we have done the right thing for RomaKay. We want the best life for her...
This night also gave the staff a chance to see Roma's personality!
A proud Mom

RomaKay Happy Halloween!
Roma will soon celebrate Halloween with many of her new friend with an Anne Carlsen Halloween Party this Friday which has become a real tradition at the school. They kids get all dressed up and have lots of fun with music and games friends and staff. Roma is going as a Pumpkin this year. Mom and Grandma Kay plan on attending and (hope to be mice in the corner for as long) as possible to watch Roma enjoy the festivities. We may need to come in costume to keep our identity a secret :). It is so great to see her enjoying her new friends and so many fun activities.

Thursday, October 7th update
Morning Jennifer,
Hope you are enjoying this beautiful week!
Getting you caught up on Roma's week, Roma
has had very good days this week. She has been
busy w/ language arts, swimming, science, social
studies, outing to the Pantry, therapies, getting
outside during class activities, and work in the classroom.
Roma is such a neat kid and we are enjoying every minute
with her. I love her smile. I have been singing w/ her daily,
as do all of our staff, and Roma is doing a good job with
following her schedule and participating in activities w/ peers,
staff, and others in the community.
Grandma Evelyn and Grandma Judy are delightful :)
Here are some pics! Enjoy the day,
CM
