1st Day with VGo (Wall-e)

Today the VGo was at school and Priscilla had to drive it from our house.  Emily (Spec. Ed) was there to help in the beginning.  There will definitely be a learning curve for all of us on figuring out how to manipulate it and how to maneuver through the classrooms and hallways.  And, there are some areas where the wifi drops so we have to figure that out.   The kids and teachers and all the school personnel will have to get used to having the VGo roam around the halls!

I had put Colin's new tee shirt on it the other day, "Keep Calm and Kill Zombies."  Priscilla ended up putting a little bit of velco on the shirt and the unit so it would stay on.  I'm not sure if it's an appropriate saying for school, but oh well :)

Talked with the van people a couple of times today.  Kind of a bummer that the salesman isn't going to be there Sat-Monday.  So, if Gene wants to get it sooner than later he's going to have to go on Thursday.  Still have some things we ne:ed to get done before he heads out so we'll see.

I'm giving a shout out to our friend, MJ Purk as it's her 25th birthday today!  MJ has SMA--She's not a typical type 1 nor a type 2--sometimes she calls herself a super type 1.  Anyway, she is amazing!  Unfortunately she is spending her birthday in the hospital but I'm sure she's making it a good one anyway.

Casey story to share:

He was hanging out with his ipad watching football and had his DynaVox hooked up.  He said,

"Queen Latifah sing football game Dallas Cowboys could you please, mom?" Does he seriously think I'm going to find a football game (on YouTube) where Queen Latifah sings at a Dallas Cowboys game????????????    First of all, it's an excellent sentence.  Second of all, he must have remembered seeing it before and something prompted him to want to see/hear it again.  Pretty amazing, huh?!   Then, another funny thing is that I posted this on Facebook and two of my friends found a video of Queen Latifah singing the National Anthem at a Giants/Cowboys game and posted the YouTube links!  So, I got to show him the video and he was satisfied.  After a while he was onto something else ;-)

Here's a pic of him using his adapted MP3 player that Santa got him from RJ Cooper.  He loves it! 
He can change the songs with his switch!
