I am updating everyone to announce a website I’m opening up that I’ve kept for some time now to myself as I was building it. I never thought of publishing our educational progress but the more I’ve used it the more I realize it might be interesting to others too. So I’ll be posting a […]
It has been a month since Lily has been united with her service dog Timber. Below you will find links to the updates so that you can read the changes that are happening and be a part of the joy that are lives are experiencing. I hope you enjoy reading. To view the […]
I have compiled together new information that reflects where Lily is right now in June 2015. Please take some time to visit Lily’s Story page and find the new post there named Lily’s Story: Part 3 or click this link. Additionally, I have gathered notes about skills in general that Lily has been successful in […]
We want to thank you. Except we don’t just want to thank you. We want to wrap our arms around you & give you back the kindness you’ve given us. Every donation received is appreciated. I never thought we could get this far. And here we are a month away from something Lily has waited […]
The time has come. Next month we are traveling North to meet and bring home our daughters new life long companion, her autism service dog.
Lily has lifted her voice. She sings. And now she speaks. I’ll say it again. Lily speaks.
We would like to thank you for your recent donations towards Lily’s service dog. The time is approaching & soon she will meet which dog will become her new partner. We will keep you posted.

The girls have spent a good chunk of time learning reading skills on their Lexa software on their iPads. We followed up on that with physical worksheets where they could practice writing skills alongside what […]
Sadly my camera battery died today so I couldn’t take more photography but at least I got a little bit before the shutter stopped clicking. Lol. Below is an activity I sat up with Handwriting without Tears and a setup called Hooked on Phonics. This is very simple basic learning but great practice with handwriting […]
Older material below……….. Below the girls work on language workbooks and Magnatabs to practice handwriting. Uppercase, lowercase and script alphabet as well as numbers 1-9. Above we have messy hair and paint. Some of the paint actually went on the paper. Lol. This is clear paint that goes on in color so it’s a fun […]
Below the girls are working on tablets that allow them to explore temperatures based on their sense of touch. Their are two each of metal, stone, glass, and two different densities in woods. Each material has a distinct touch and temperature…one is cooler than the next. So while the girls are blindfolded or their eyes […]
I found some older photos on a camera card that I wasn’t sure if I published or not so I’m doing it again before I delete them. Above the girls work on spelling by using the moveable alphabet and placing in at the beginning, middle or ending sounds of words. The girls then practiced […]
Lily is 4 years old now. Many things have changed since Lilybird’s Freedom was created. Lily still has Apraxia of Speech. We have started her at a special school which specifically treats Apraxia with multi-sensory techniques that include learning to read, write & speak at the same time. It is widely known as the Association Method. […]
