So... did I fail to mention that Steve got a new job last month? With grad school and an internship starting in the fall, Steve needed to find something with a little more flexibility and fewer hours. He applied for the job and within 2 weeks was starting orientation.
Hiawatha Homes, Inc. supports children, adults, and families with developmental disabilities, physical impairments, traumatic brain injury, and specialized medical needs. They have 30 homes in Rochester with 4-5 residents per home. Steve is responsible for getting two of the residents up and ready in the morning: bathing, dressing, feeding, and medication administration. Overall, he likes the change of pace and enjoys caring for the developmentally disabled.
We've been settling into a different routine with his new hours and I must say that both Amaya and I are enjoying seeing him more! We've been able to do several "day trips" and fun outings this month during the week when everyone else is slaving away at work! This week - the ZOO!!
