Luc (Ti Luc) in Canada
Speech Therapy

Luc (Ti Luc) in Canada

May 6, 2017 Posted by Karen Huxter 3 Comments

While in Canada Luc is kept very busy with Occupational Therapy, Speech Therapy, Doctor appointments, Gymnastics, and now Soccer is added twice weekly. Add home schooling, with a tutor Joanna, to this keeps the boy, and his mama, very busy.

Speaking of home schooling. Just before leaving Haiti for Canada Luc went into his room one afternoon to see what homework Joan had listed on his white board for him. Upon hearing a yell I went in to find him looking at this sign and then going into his happy dance. No homework one day gave me a delighted and happy boy. He then decided Joan was definitely not as hard on him with school work as his mama is.

    Love to see Luc playing soccer and doing gymnastics.
    Hope the weather is warming up for you both, I know what we think is warm is really cold to you both!

    Looks like that smile is permanently fixed on his face – what a wonderful time for the well deserving young man. Give him a big hug from Texas and tell him that we love very much!
