Yay! We are making it!

Today marks the 8th Day of School and so Far things are going great, A loves his teacher and that helps A TON she really seems to understand him. She has put him near people who he recognizes to make him more comfortable.. He is on an end desk so that he doesn't feel trapped in the middle.. All Is great in school land.. I had meet the teacher this week for him and I went in and listened to what the teacher had to say.. She sounds like she is really as excited for this year as the kids are which is wonderful. As I said this is her first full year with her own classroom and she is really striving to make it great.. I think she can do it..She is really helpful with all the kids and seems to really have a grasp of A's Asperger' s Related weaknesses. So far she has walked A down the bridge when School is out to make sure he can find me which is great since he gets lost and confused in the mix of 3 grades and all their parents that release from his door this year..

In other news I found out yesterday that A's therapy agency has finally secured another TSS for him.. I am sad to see the old one go as she was wonderful beyond words.. but we are looking forward to the new one.. She will meet with us Next Wednesday so that we can meet her before our years first Scouting Meeting and then Thursday night its into the Fire for her.. lol.. and I don't even mean that figuratively .. Last year at our Fall Roundup ( our first Cub Scout Meeting of the year) I heard the screaming of FIGHT FIGHT FIGHT coming from down the hall way.. Low and behold when I get down there.. there is my tiny, smaller than normal size 6 year old attempting to beat the snot out of some giant 11 year old.. Thank the Gods the other kids had parents who taught him not to punch the crap out of the crazy little kids... I don't know what posesses my child sometimes..Ok.. well.. maybe I do.. but I wonder somedays if he doesn't think he is untouchable.. He said that time that the problem was the kid didnt follow the rules of the Yu Gi Oh game the other kids where playing.. DANG.. you resort to fists over something like that.. We have a LOOONG way to go kid.. Thankfully the year did get a bit better.. I think 5 meltdowns out of the 30 or so total meetings which isn't great.. but its better than every meeting...

And Finally, I am finishing up by saying I am heading out this weekend to run a booth for the Scouts at a Local Festival.. we will be gone most of the day Friday, Saturday and Sunday.. Friday it will just be Me and A going from our Household as J has to work.. but the other twos days it will be all Three of us as J has requested those days off and Thankfully got them.. So, To anyone out there. Have a good weekend...Enjoy the last little bits of summer that are hanging on by a thread!
