Macie is 8 years old and is non verbal. She has autism. We recently were given an opportunity to get a service dog to help her. His name is Wrigley and they are amazing together. I am blogging to stop clogging up facebook with my posts. :0)

Thank you
We still work on sign language with Macie all the time. I am always trying to teach her to say "please", and "thank you". Today when Phil got home from work Macie was trying very hard to get us to turn on Yo Gabba Gabba. Phil told her if she sat on her butt on the couch he would turn it on. She grabbed her blankie and got up on the couch so Phil got the remote. I did the sign for "thank you", and holy cow......so did Macie, and then she followed it up with a verbal "thank you".
We were so proud!!!!
This was right after she did the sign, she was still working on it.
