Our son is feeling under the weather; has some kind of cold or allergies. Extra clingy, which isn't too bad because we love hugs and snuggles.
with just what P and I are doing at home (best we can) he's making great progress.
He's playing with my phone. Pretty cute.
So, I ran into the PhD lady who diagnosed him on Friday. Randomly. She's running a longitudinal study on early intervention in autism. We hope her study stays funded so he can follow up with her next year at the age of four. It was nice to see her.
It was weird because I was looking at a condo in the school district we would like to be in. Afterward, i got some fro-yo and there she was. Just wow. I took it as a sign that maybe that is where we should be.
However, I was in a hurry to leave and go get G from preschool, so I didn't check my email. The condo was in a desirable area. someone wrote to the owner first & they got it. Crap.
P and I are tired of being in the car 3 hours a day, each. If we stay in our metro area, we HAVE to move closer to the autism resources and our jobs. I have so much on my mind. Yikes. Tired of moving, tired of making dumb decisions. Want all decisions from now on to benefit my son. Thank goodness for parents who have tread this road before we have, and have given us so much to work from.
Can't wait for the TACA conference.
Just learned that Tony from the punk band Adolescents is a huge advocate for Autism and taught special ed, and is the parent of a child on the spectrum. Wow. I haven't seen "the other f-word" yet...(is he in that?) but hope P and I can watch it tonight after G goes to bed. If he falls asleep at a decent time! (sleep disturbances are common in Autism.)
