Legoland


We still have the privilege of spending time with Steve about once a month or so. He is doing the best as his difficult circumstances allow, and he is currently in a school and educational program that is a good fit for him. He loves it and he is ready for his bus long before it shows up at his door. We are so proud to hear reports from him that he is reading at a high-school level and that he is going longer and longer durations of time in home and school settings without losing emotional self-control.

His school was on spring break the week before we had spring vacation, so Douwe and I and Steve and Grandpa and Grandma Groen enjoyed our first field trip to Lego Land in Schaumberg. I think everyone's favorite part was the huge Lego play room at the end of the tour through the building, but overall we enjoyed seeing all the Lego creations from city of Chicago replica to life-size President Obama statue.
