While we were at my Dad's Surprise 60th birthday party yesterday, there was a time that we could all sign this giant card.  While Emmett was signing his name, Lizze and I noticed that he was writing his name, upside down.  It was absolutely amazing how fast and accurate he did this.  This is one of the little quirks that make Emmett who he is.  Check out the brief clip to see exactly what he was doing and keep in mind that he did this with his entire name.  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0KChGFv_8xQ&feature=youtube_gdata_player This site is managed almost exclusively from my Galaxy S4. Please forgive any typos as autocorrect HATES me. ;-) Follow @Lost_and_Tired "Like" me on Facebook Visit the My Autism Help Forums To reach me via email, please Contact Me   Setup…

I wanted to take this opportunity to introduce you to my family.  You already know Lizze and the boys but you don't know the family I came from. Let me introduce you.  Going from left to right.  Tim, Jon, Brian, Jen, my Mom (Barb), Me, my Dad (Bob)  and Kate. While I'm my own person, these are the people that helped shape me into who I am, whether that's a good thing or bad thing is probably a topic of debate.  ;-) It's not that common that we are all in the same place at the same time, especially in a picture.  I'm excited to share this with all of you.  :-) This site is managed almost exclusively from my Galaxy S4. Please forgive any typos as autocorrect HATES me. ;-)…

I wanted everyone to know that we finished up our board meeting at the Autism Society of Greater Akron and made it back in time to get to my Dad's surprise 60th birthday party. While I can't go into specifics but I will say that our board is comprised of some truly amazing and passionate people. There are some good things being planned for Stark County, Ohio.  As I mentioned previously, myself, Lizze and one other person from Stark County attended this strategic planning meeting.  I'm really excited to be a part of this amazing organization and I look forward to helping bring some much needed services to my hometown.  This site is managed almost exclusively from my Galaxy S4. Please forgive any typos as autocorrect HATES me. ;-) Follow @Lost_and_Tired…

Lizze and I have arrived at the Akron YWCA for our meeting with the Autism Society of Greater Akron.  Thank God for GPS because I would have gone to the wrong location. Anyway, I'm excited to get this underway.  :-) This site is managed almost exclusively from my Galaxy S4. Please forgive any typos as autocorrect HATES me. ;-) Follow @Lost_and_Tired "Like" me on Facebook Visit the My Autism Help Forums To reach me via email, please Contact Me   Setup of an account with Bluehost and I get paid.

I've got to be in Fairlawn in about an hour and a half.  Unfortunately, I'm not feeling too well this morning, at least thus far.  Hopefully, moving around a little bit will help things out.  I really don't want to miss this meeting because I'd feel like I was not living up to a commitment I'd made and I don't like doing that.  With that being said, I can only do so much. Fingers crossed that things will work out this morning.  This site is managed almost exclusively from my Galaxy S4. Please forgive any typos as autocorrect HATES me. ;-) Follow @Lost_and_Tired "Like" me on Facebook Visit the My Autism Help Forums To reach me via email, please Contact Me   Setup of an account with Bluehost and I get paid.

Today's a pretty big day for me.  I will be attending the Strategic Planning Meeting of the Autism Society of Greater Akron this morning.  I've never been to one of these but both myself and my new friend Mike are Ambassadors to Stark County.  Originally, we were both going to be sitting on the Board of Directors/Advisory Committee but that's been tabled for now.  I'd be lying if I said I wasn't disappointed but it makes more sense to do things this way, at least for now.  We are going to be meeting in Fairlawn from 9am - 1pm. As I've never been to one of these before, I'm not sure what to expect.  Having said that, I'm really excited to be a part of such a great organization.  I…

Emmett came home from school today more excited than usual. Your never going to guess why he was excited. Are you ready for this? He begged his teacher for homework this weekend. He's such a little nerd.  :-) I love it..  Check this out...  This site is managed almost exclusively from my Galaxy S4. Please forgive any typos as autocorrect HATES me. ;-) Follow @Lost_and_Tired "Like" me on Facebook Visit the My Autism Help Forums To reach me via email, please Contact Me   Setup of an account with Bluehost and I get paid.

I've been talking about this for the last week or so. Gavin's been having problems in Math class.  He gets frustrated for some reason and we haven't been able to get him to explain exactly what's going on.  We've spoken with his teachers and they assure us he's doing fine. Having said that, he's losing behavioral points because of this frustration, so whether or not his teachers say he's doing fine, clearly something is going on.  I sat him down after school today and recorded him (with his permission) explaining what happened today in Math class.  While it's still frustrating trying to talk to him about this, he actually did a pretty good job or explaining himself this time.  The reason I wanted to share this is because it's important…
