This morning began with more Gavin related issues. We have had to make a rule that when he's in his bedroom, he needs permission to leave.  This is a huge PITA but it helps to ensure everyone's safety. This morning, Gavin asked me if he could use the bathroom.  I said sure, gobuse the bathroom.  I was in my room,  still waking up. Next thing I know,  Lizze is standing there asking me if I had given Gavin permission to go downstairs.  I said no, because I hadn't.  Apparently, Gavin told Lizze that I had given him said permission to leave his room and go downstairs.  That simply was not the case.

We will be getting Elliott's broken tooth fixed tomorrow,  at 9:30 am.  Elliott is very likely to be extremely anxious about going to see the dentist.  I spoke with the dentists office about my concerns and they asked if he would tolerate the mask needed to deliver the sleeping gas. I think he will do that.  It's a much better option than trying to do this with him awake. Thankfully it's just a baby tooth. It could always be..........wow,  that was close.  I almost jinxed myself.  This was posted via WordPress for Android, courtesy of Samsung’s Galaxy S III. Please forgive any typos.

Today's #Autism Discussion is going to be very simple but perhaps the most helpful yet. I want to create an ongoing dialog, where people can ask questions about Autism and have them answered by other members of the community. I think this is a great way to spread Autism Awareness. So...... Do you have any questions about Autism that you would like to have answered? Please don't be afraid to ask anything, you will be treated with respect and we will work hard to provide you with honest answers.

Elliott is finally asleep. He's been awake for the better part of 2 days. I mentioned that he broke a tooth and I think that is contributing to the problem. Tonight,  I bumped his melatonin up a little bit.  It was just enough to help ease him off to sleep.  Thank God for small favors.
