Happy 2nd Anniversary VIBE!!! Thank you Ms. Amanda for bringing your dream to reality! Thank you to infinity and beyond! We are so blessed to have you and VIBE in our life.

Sophia's whole world has opened up and been filled with joy and friendship! She and this beautiful girl Angelle had their first paired session this week and had such a blast!!! This is what they had to say at the end of the session:
Sophia: "I am proud to call you friend."
Angelle: "I think I'm the lucky one."

If ever there were true kindred spirits, Chase and Phi are the epitome! They have been BFFs since day 1! They have been doing paired session lessons and group classes with Amanda at VIBE Learning Center and discussing things like history, science, geography, spirituality , etc and are really enjoying hearing each other's perspectives! We are beyond elated for them and their friendship. They understand each other's journey in a way that those of us not on the spectrum cannot. We are so grateful for Chase and his family.
They are the sweetest Valentines ever!
Chase: " Happy V Day. This was the best day ever"
Sophia: "I think so too. Thank you"

A "MAD-LIB story building spelling session with Reid!
"Ok Reid-we are on a path walking through the rain forest in Costa Rica. What are we hearing?" BIRDS
"We walk along and Amanda screams, bc she sees something..." A SPIDER
"What does Reid do?" SMASHES IT WITH HIS SHOES
"Soon we run into people..." DAD MOM & SYDNEY
"What happens next?" THEY JOIN OUR EXCURSION TO THE WILDERNESS
"Ok Reid we are searching for the most famous and rare..."
SLOTH ALIVE-WE HIKE FOR MILES "On our hike Ms Amanda is cranky and starving to death. How do you help?"
I AM SEARCHING ALL OVER FOR FRUIT TREES SO AMANDA WONT DIE. 😂😳 "Are you successful?" I GET TO THE OTHER SIDE AND FIND A BANANA TREE.
"Ok-Amanda eats all of the bananas (but hates them 😂) and we keep walking. We run into Sophia (another speller friend)
What do you ask her for?
HER TO HELP US 🦥 💕🦥
"She has a backpack with a tool in it to help. What's the tool?" SLOTHOMETER 😂
"Hmmm ok Reid..what does a SLOTHOMETER do?" TRACKS SLOTHS (of course😂)
Here's where Reid starts to fade. He's finished and spells so, but Amanda asks him to please just give one more sentence to finish the story.
RIGHT IN THE TREE ABOVE OUR HEADS WE SPOT ONE. THE END 😂🤣

Way to wrap it up, Reid!
