Rockin’ Recipient Sean Cleverdon had a very Merry orange and purple Christmas! I asked his mom how his first semester in the Clemson LIFE Program went and she said, “Really well. He had a blast and learned a lot too. And, we definitely missed him more than he missed us!” I hear that so often!!

She also has noticed some major growth and accomplishments in this semester as well. She said the main thing is his awareness of time and his schedule. She says that “He’s back at work during the break and we haven’t had any contact with his manager since he has communicated his work schedule back and forth without issue. He rounds off time now. For example if it is 5:48 he may say “church is in 10 minutes”, which is amazingly abstract for him. He has kept up with our busy holiday schedule and always knows whats coming up, etc. Living in the eastern timezone at school and central here has given him a great understanding of time zones which is nice. And of course our favorite change is that he does all of his own laundry.”

Man I sure do love these updates!! I hope everyone is revving up for a fantastic 2017! Stay inspired and grateful peeps! And keep on rockin’ it Sean!! Woot!
