Just Too Smart

The speech therapist this evening told me that Sam had remembered that she went to the Zoo this weekend and could also recall other activities once clues were given to her. Sam seemed to know that Pam from the museum had visited her this weekend too, and she was enjoying the trashy magazines that Pam had brought her, but did need clues to recall the day. I asked Sam what animals she saw at the Zoo this past weekend, and after thinking about it for a little bit, she said to me "you know, the usual". I had to laugh at that since Sam is just too smart. She knows how to get around answering the questions, when she can't recall or pull the information that she has in her head. What a great answer. Later in the evening when I was saying goodnight, Sam told me to "get home safely". It was a sweet end to a simple evening together.
