Lizze is spending time with her aunt this morning.  The boys have been fighting for most of the morning and Elliott has been in extreme whiney mode.  I actually have them getting along right now as they are playing n+ together on the XBoX.  Elliott is starting to whine because he wants to play more by himself but Emmett is just happy to be playing.  Elliott is far and away our most challenging child at the moment.  Despite everything though, we have lived to fight another day.  That's a very positive thing. :-) This site is managed via WordPress for Android, courtesy of the @SamsungMobileUS Galaxy Note 2 by @Tmobile. Please forgive any typos.

I wanted to share this blog that I did while waiting to pick up Elliott at school on Friday. It's about 10 minutes and I talk about the wraparound process and I also share my biggest fears about this whole thing.  I like doing this videos because it's easier sometimes to speak than write.  I just need to get better at it.  :-) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c2iNawOUS7k This site is managed via WordPress for Android, courtesy of the @SamsungMobileUS Galaxy Note 2 by @Tmobile. Please forgive any typos.

I was thinking that it might be helpful to share this video I put together. It's about what my kids would want you to know about #Autism.  Remember, this is about my kids but I think that others can relate as well. I would never presume to speak for you or your kids.  My only goal is to help make people aware of how #Autism can effect at least my family.  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uFyN4zsR1nY This site is managed via WordPress for Android, courtesy of the @SamsungMobileUS Galaxy Note 2 by @Tmobile. Please forgive any typos.

Emmett never fails to amaze me.  As sensory sensitive as he is, his desire to actually see his world is stronger than the sensory issues screaming st him to take the glasses off. I'm so proud of him.  :-) This site is managed via WordPress for Android, courtesy of the @SamsungMobileUS Galaxy Note 2 by @Tmobile. Please forgive any typos.

Emmett's glasses came in today.  After our Wraparound meeting, which I'll talk about later, we took Emmett to go pick them up.  You should  have seen the expression  in his face when he saw his world for the very first time. It was nothing short of amazing.  I haven't felt that awesome in so long and I can't even imagine how Emmett feels.  He asked if he could wear his glasses forever.  :-) It's literally like he's seeing everything for the first time and I'm so happy for him.  :-) This site is managed via WordPress for Android, courtesy of the @SamsungMobileUS Galaxy Note 2 by @Tmobile. Please forgive any typos.

We have yet another Wraparound meeting this morning.  I'm going to be really honest here and tell you that I've pretty much given up on Gavin going to residential placement.  The truth is, he's doing really well right now and no one is going to place him.  I'm actually okay with that because we just want what's best for him and if this is working than why rock the boat.  The huge downside however, is the fact that he wasn't going simply for behavioral reasons.  The hospital we were looking at would also be focusing on his physical health as well.  Gavin's health is so complex and fragile that no one has been able to really pin down what's going in with him.  Our hope was that this would happen…
