What's up, Pilgrim?

It has become clear to me that even Phase 8 is not a guarantor of completion of training.  I received extremely disappointing news last night...  and unfortunately, it was via voicemail so there is no clarification as to what could be happening.  Pilgrim was taken out of Class on Tuesday due to a "training issue".  I am so disappointed because it looked like he had a great home with a very communicative partner.  The plan now is to work with Pilgrim to see IF the problem can be corrected.  Without knowing what the issue is, I don't know if I should feel optimistic about what this means for Pilgrim's future.  Anyone have any information on this sort of thing?

On the bright side, I was not going to be able to go to graduation anyway (primarily beacuse it was Easter weekend and you cannot fly anywhere affordably and last-minute, but there were other factors preventing driving up, as well) so, perhaps he will get his "issue" corrected and we will still get to see the Boy graduate.

Wishing for quick learning, Pilgrim.  Hope to see you soon, BumBum (toddler speak for Pilgrim).

I got the call...

The call came last night at 6pm. 







It was from Guide Dogs for the Blind.










It was about Pilgrim.








Pilgrim is IN CLASS. 
 
Woo Woo!
Graduation day is March 30.




Way to go, Golden Boy.  See you soon!
