Going Well (Fingers Crossed)

The boys are doing really well this week. I got a phone message yesterday from their BSC while they were at school relaying that they were both having a "phenomenal day." Eric was listening, talking and interacting with his classmates more than anyone had seen before. He needed a break at one point and went out into the great room in the church and requested that he sit and listen to the two people practicing violins. He played catch with his weighted dog (calming effect) with some of his classmates. He answered questions spontaneously, etc.

Evan proved, once again, that he simply does not need assistance in school, though his teacher said it was just a really good day for him. He was doing his work, playing with Jake and Jonah (his friends) and listening.

All of this was after we all went to get our flu shots and they were both total troopers. No tears about the shots at all. Evan cried afterward because I would only let him have one lollipop--shocking!

Rob said I should save the phone message from the BSC for those "not so good" days. Done!

Tomorrow it's off to the dentist in the a.m. before school. Maybe I just need to schedule some not-so-fun events before and it will make school look like a trip to an amusement park!

I'm glad you saved the message. Rob is right. You need good things to help overshadow the bad ones.
