Our homeschool schedule is so packed this school year. We are on the road a good portion of the week due to Speech Therapy. This is a good trade off to me though. Ryan is still making progress and he is still getting academics at home from Adriana and from me. We listen to audiobooksContinue reading “President Curry and a Special Meeting”

Progress and a Birthday
It has been a busy month in the Curry household. School is in full swing and we are still taking Ryan to Speech Therapy three times a week. Ryan is also seeing his personal trainer, Lee from Special Strong, on a weekly basis now. He attends Religious Education (R.E.) class and Mass on a weeklyContinue reading “Progress and a Birthday”
Currys in the Courtroom
Last Thursday, Ryan and I went to the United States District Court in Fort Worth, Texas. This was our first field trip of the school year. This field trip was sparked by a book series that we read over the summer, the Theodore Boone, Kid Lawyer Series by John Grisham. We read all 6 books andContinue reading “Currys in the Courtroom”
Summer Vacation 2018, Part 2
On that Saturday, we decided to explore the Balboa Park area that has a lot of different museums for tourists to check out. The night before, we asked the kids which museum they wanted to go to (narrowing it down to a few that Randy and I were interested in first) and Grace picked theContinue reading “Summer Vacation 2018, Part 2”
Summer Vacation 2018, Part 1
Goodbye Summer, hello school! We finished summer with a bang as we took a family vacation to San Diego, California last week. Ryan has a doctor that he has to visit annually, with offices in Southern California and Central Florida, so we scheduled an appointment in August and planned a vacation around it. We arrivedContinue reading “Summer Vacation 2018, Part 1”
Summer Stuff and Speech Therapy
It has been a while since our last post. We have been extremely busy this summer and I barely have had a chance to sit down to compose a post. We did run the race on July 4th, but it was a hard one. The heat definitely got to Ryan as it was about 82Continue reading “Summer Stuff and Speech Therapy”
10 Things We Would Have Never Known Without Rapid Prompting Method
We went to 5:00 pm Mass last night. As we were singing the Gloria, a thought popped into my head. I looked down at Ryan and I thought about how amazing it was that he was sitting next to me in church and that this is our normal every week. It sort of spiraled fromContinue reading “10 Things We Would Have Never Known Without Rapid Prompting Method”
Answering a Question, a Hair Cut, and a Science Project
When we first started the blog, Ryan wanted to answer some reader questions. He did this, and recently, he received a new question from a family member. She asked, “Ryan, I recently encountered a young man who appeared to have autism. I wanted to say something to him to show him that I understood aContinue reading “Answering a Question, a Hair Cut, and a Science Project”
More Races, The North Richland Hills Dog Show, and a Fun Event
It has been a busy month of May for us so far. Ryan, Freckles, and I ran in another local race in which we posted about on Facebook. I was worried during and after this race. The hills made it very difficult. Ryan ran the entire first mile, but then had trouble after that. AtContinue reading “More Races, The North Richland Hills Dog Show, and a Fun Event”
The Mythbusters and Some More of Ryan’s Writings
Last weekend, Ryan and I participated in a panel discussion with two other families to talk about our experience with Rapid Prompting Method. This was our second TACA event and the turnout was good despite the rainy, cold day. Randy and I had to split parent because Grace had her midseason School of Rock showContinue reading “The Mythbusters and Some More of Ryan’s Writings”
