     Today, my daughter went up one age level in supine and prone core, upper body, brachiation and dichotic listening.  For her homework today I noticed she could do thirty sit ups in a row with her feet tucked under the couch.  The age goal is 37 unassisted.


      To be honest, I'm a little tired of her doing better in physical abilities and not improving on her auditory processing and visual processing.  I'm paying $6,000 for her to do better academically and to recognize social cues better, not for her to be able to say, "Look at me!  I can do push-ups!"  I haven't taken her to do the nutrition lab part of it yet because of the money, but it is time for me to suck it up and pay the $500 to have her assessed.  I hear rumor they charge even more for the supplements.  I know it is not right of me to judge a program if I don't do everything they ask.  I just hate those red numbers.

     So my daughter went up another age level in supine core, prone core, upper body, balance beam and brachiation by one year.  So in two weeks her strength has improved by two years.  I was talking to her about brachiation and she said that she was only able to hold on to the monkey bars to the count of four.  I thought she was able to go across at least half way.  It is supposed to be 77 degrees on Saturday, I'm going to take her to the park and see for myself.
     All of her homework exercises seem to be entirely too easy for her, where it was not so easy when we started this at the beginning of last week.  When I go tomorrow I will ask if they want us to do something else.  I am also making sure that she listens at least three times a day to the Brain Balance music in the left ear.  Here is what they have to say about it.


     My daughter has "With Wolves and Whales" which is located at the bottom of  http://www.i-waveonline.com/iwavesamples.htm in case you want to hear for yourself some of the samples she listens to everyday.
