Go Home!

It's been a while since my last post, but wanted to share.

My son has had some challenging days lately. Some transitions are coming up in the near future, but I'll save that for another blog. As I picked him up from school yesterday, my son was being somewhat resistant to leaving class. I was getting his backpack ready, and he came up to me and said, "Mommy, go home?". Ok, so my son may be 4 yrs old, but for someone who is speech delayed, it was a MAJOR accomplishment. It was fantastic. I was ecstatic and my eyes ALMOST filled with tears. I didn't want my son to get a mixed message from me, but I hugged him so tight and told him "Great job. Great sentence." Other than not being a not-so-perfect day at school, turned out a great day none-the-less.

Also, last night I attended my first Autism Support Group in a neighboring town/city. Needless to say, I also happened to had attended the last one that the host was putting on. So, again, it's back to square one trying to find a local one. Looks like I may have to start one on my own.

Until another day.
