"How are you baby girl" she was still silent but gives me a small nod to say I'm ok which I will take with a smile on my face "so today Cait we are going to play some games do you like games" I see a smirk on her face which is so cute "Great so our first game is called what the time mister wolf and what happens is that you are facing the wall and my job is to sneak up on you without you seeing me and I say what the time mister wolf and you say a time so for example you could say 12 o clock so I would have to take a step towards you and if you see moving at anytime I'm out "
"So if you face the wall and I will take my spot at the back " so I hope she likes this game I love playing it when I was at school "ok than hear we go what the time mister wolf" I hear her say "12 o clock" so I take a step forward and repeat what I say and she turns around a few times but she don't see me moving and now I right by her and I say "what the time mister wolf" and she says " dinner time" so now I start running and she chasing me so I deliberately not run fast so she caches me and her arms are around me and to see her laugh and see her enjoying it and smiling makes me so happy.
"So the next game I have in mind we play is called Twister and both have to go bare feet with this one and we have a mat on the floor With different colours on it and a spinner and we take it in turns to spin the spinner and we have to try to keep and hands and feet on the mat and if one of us falls over who ever is standing wins so if you stand on the red spot and I will stand on the yellow Spot and I will spin " and it lands on red so I say " Cait put your right hand on red" "Millie put your right hand on blue" she not spoken for ages and to see her say something to me and speaking to me I know it's working "ok Cait put your left leg on blue" and I'm about to fall I could reach it but the whole idea of playing games is to bring her out of her shell and she has made a big step given me a smile and hearing her laugh and talking to me so I fall and she wins and I look at my watch and our session for the morning Is over so I say to her " well done Cait you was amazing today I'm really glad to see you today and look forward to more of our sessions" and I hear her say "I really enjoyed it today I've not had a good time like this in ages and I look forward to seeing you as well " "can I have a hug " so I put my arm's out and she runs to me and give me a lovely hug and I say see you soon and walk away thinking to myself progress.
