It doesn’t take much to throw off the routine of a child with Autism. 

What throws them off doesn’t have to be a bad thing either.  It could be something as positive as a birthday party,  trip to the movies or even getting to spend the night with their Mother. 

Emmett is probably the most sensitive to these changes and it usually manifests itself in a disruption of his sleep cycle. 

Last night was one such night for Mr. Emmett. 

He was unable to fall asleep last night and after a solid attempt on his part,  he ended up downstairs on the couch, snuggling me.
