I wanted to present the Today's #Autism Victory award to one Mr. Elliott Richard.  Despite having been woke up at 4am by Emmett, he had a fantastic morning.  He got dressed and out the door with out much problem at all.  I'm really proud of him for his choices this morning. Great job Elliott, Daddy is sooooooo proud of you.  This site is managed via WordPress for Android, courtesy of the @SamsungMobileUS Galaxy Note 2 by @Tmobile. Please forgive any typos.

Today has just been a really trying day. We haven't had much luck this week so far and we still have a long way to go.  Tuesday Therapy barely got off the ground but went out with a bang.  We had to cancel speech and OT this afternoon due to car problems.  That problem was a lack of fuel in the tank.  I don't even want to get into the reasons why anymore.  Gavin came home this afternoon and and was picked up around 5pm while we were at Dr.  Patti's. Before we could get into see Dr. Patti, Elliott was having a meltdown and Gavin was freaking out in his grandmother's car. Elliott's meltdown lasted about 45 minutes and basically killed the entire appointment.  I'm so exhausted right now. …

Guess who just showed up at my door? That's right, it was FedEx.  What where they carrying? You guessed it, tablets.  Who are these tablets for? My readers! I just received $1,000 worth of donated tablets from Idolain, with the expressed purpose of reviewing one and giving the rest away to my amazing readers.  These are brand new models and stack up almost spec to spec with the iPad mini.  I'm so excited to give these away.  Right now, my plans are to give 3 away online and one to a local family.  I'll be working with out OT to identify a family that would benefit most from this.  Also,  Lizze might host one of the 3 online giveaways as well.  Stay tuned and check back frequently because I will…

Emmett managed to drag me away from work again this morning. He just had to play hide and seek. After a little bit of prodding from Emmett, combined with my weak resolve, we were playing games video and go seek.  I have to admit that while I should have been working, it was fun to play with him.  :-) Can you find Emmett in the picture below?

Emmett is a fickle pickle when it comes to eating.  His food has to be perfect or he won't even think about eating it.  However, he will rarely ever say no to pudding, especially chocolate pudding.  Do your kids have a favorite food? Is there something that you can fall back on when they refuse to eat anything else?

I wanted to you all a line and let you know how Gavin's evaluation went today.  To sum it up in one word, awesome. The woman that did our evaluation was one of the nicest people I've ever met and one of the few people who seemed to really get it. Ya'll can probably relate to how amazing it feels when you meet someone that actually gets it. Gavin did awesome today as well.  He was really polite and patient throughout the lengthy interview.  I'm really proud of him and I made sure he knew it.  I guess we just need to wait for all the paperwork to go through.  We can go ahead and add this to the wind column.
