Catholic Human Services Picnic- August 2013

CHS has an annual picnic for the previous and current families in the program.  It's always neat to see the other kids and couples who were in the program the same time we were. 

This year was out on Elk Lake... like most of the water around here, this lake was really pretty.  We ate, chatted, played with bubbles...

I do not remember these two boys' names- they are both adopted to families in the program.  One is about 2 years younger than Caelan, the other one is about 3 years younger. 

These two pictures are so, so significant.  Caelan typically avoids swings because of his sensory problems.  His brain misinterprets the motion.  He has made a lot of progress but rarely gets on an actual swing like this... definitely not on his own!  So I was thrilled to tears as I saw him over there- not only on the swing- but lifting his feet off the ground so it would move!

Yes!
