We’re waiting for the school bus. Joey has decided he is Blue, and is hopping around barking like Blue, alternated with, “I’m a blue POOH bear!”

IEP day. We did pretty well. What a difference from our preschool battles! Instead of a three-hour marathon, we were in and out in an hour and a quarter. Fun fun fun!

We have become fans of the Magic School Bus. Joey’s science “grades” have skyrocketed. Now we need a visual link-up for social studies….

Andy is sleeping in. Joey wanted to sleep in, but school today. We head to join Allan at the beach tomorrow. Hoping for decent weather!

Ah, the chorus of “Where’s Daddy?” begins a new day. Despite the reluctance of the school OT to send the questionnaire home, we have gotten Joey’s new sensory profile done. Woo-hoo!

Wow, I thought I’d have sick kids today, but they both went to school. Know I don;t know what to do with myself. I’m going to go clean something…

open house

Last night, we attended an open house my daughters’ school. I was proud of both of my girls and the work they had on display. I have to say, it was especially sweet to see my youngest in her room, with her pals, all of them together-truly the joy of autism in motion!

Put him on the bus, and off he goes. This is his fourth year in school. Shouldn’t this be getting easier by now? I miss my Joey.

Our Triennial went OK. He’s still autistic, and the school agrees. Fortunately, the school OT skipped town this week, so I didn’t have to deal with her- and the meeting was smooth as glass.

A moment of quiet. Both boys are at school. I have the day off from the office since my mom went to Baltimore for a research trip. I am about to set to a couple of small cleaning projects, easier to do without boys about. Deep breath… then plunge.
