It's been a really long day,  and it's only 11:15am. We met with Wraparound,  which I'll post about later and went grocery shopping. Emmett has been all over the place today and was all over the grocery store earlier. As Lizze and Emmett are going down for their naps,  I settled onto the couch to get some writing done. I'm not sitting for 5 minutes before I see Bella cropping on the floor. Keep in mind that I just let her out. Why does everything have to be so difficult anymore? I mean,  Bella could have gone potty outside.  She could have even pooped in one spot. Instead,  it was like someone type of pooping Olympics or something.  She's walking and pooping at the same time.  As soon as I…

Gavin was freaking out last night. Apparently,  he had accidentally changed the time on his watch while trying to turn the backlight on. Elliott came and got me,  because I could hear him from downstairs. I called Gavin down to find out what was wrong.  He explained about the watch.  I told him to relax and I could fix it.  No big deal.  He said thanks Dad, and went back upstairs.  A short while later, Elliott came and got me again.  Apparently, Gavin was sobbing and yelling at himself.  This had Elliott freaked out.  I ran upstairs to see what was wrong.  Gavin was extremely upset that he has accidentally messed up the time on his watch. When I say upset,  I mean really,  really upset. It was really weird.…

We meet with Wraparound this morning and introduce ourselves.  I'm not sure what the full purpose of today's meeting is, but it's a step in the right direction. They can us to locate services and other things that may help. Hopefully this will prove to be a productive day.  I'll be sure to let you all know how the meeting went..

As much as I have been trying,  I can't get those words out of my head.  When Gavin told us last night that he doesn't care about anyone,  it was a complete shock. I mentioned in a previous post that what shocked me the most about this,  was how well he was able to articulate that. He wasn't telling us something we didn't already know or at least strongly suspect. It was just the fact that he actually said those words. It's one of those things in life that you can never unhear. I'm haunted tonight by my son's words. This was posted via WordPress for Android, courtesy of Samsung’s Galaxy S III. Please forgive any typos. I do know how to spell but auto-correct hate me.

Gavin admitted in therapy tonight that he doesn't care about anyone. This wasn't a huge shock to us but I never expected for him to be able to articulate that. He told us that he wishes he could care,  he just doesn't. We told him that we were proud of him for being honest with us.  We also made it very clear that this doesn't make him a bad person, it's just part of who he is. It does mean that we will have to work very hard to try and help him learn respect other people's feelings. No one knows quite what to make of this. Having said that,  it does fall in line with his diagnosis and what everyone has said. He also admitted to being inappropriate with…
