Last night, Alan had another great soccer game. He was a bit tired during his game so he did not play as well but he still followed all the rules and gave it his best. Afterwords, we picked up Chick-Fil-A for dinner. I had a support group meeting this night so we had to have a quick meal. With the kids safe with their babysitter I was off to Mt. Pleasant for the meeting. There were 19 of us in the room and we all shared our stories with each other. It was difficult to hear from the mom's with older children and their struggles of having teenagers with Autism. It was also great to hear how each family overcame these obstacles and how well their children are doing. I am excited that this support group was started and I hope that we can help many parents in the future.
Today, Alan had a great day at school. He came home and wanted to play with his trains. I told him he could play for a few minutes until his therapist came. Well low and behold once "JD" arrived he came down about 5 minutes later and went straight to the play room. That was awesome because usually he stays up there until the therapist gets him. He had a great session with "JD". His SLP came as well and she did some assessment testing. Another great day in therapy land. For dinner I fixed Chicken and Rice. Alan ate the chicken with some french fries. He ate all his chicken and asked after dinner if he could watch "Chicka Chicka Boom Boom". He said he would finish all his dinner so he could watch it. He loves that show. Put the kids to bed with no problems and now I am taking a well deserved break. Till Tomorrow!
