This one is pretty simple.  Does your child with #Autism benefit from animals? Does your child have a favorite pet,  maybe a dog or a cat?  Has this pet helped your child in anyway? For example, does you child have a special bond or relationship with their pet?

Elliott and Emmett have been playing/fighting upstairs in my room for a little while now.  I called Gavin down in order to put his energy to good use.  I had Gavin help me around the house for a little bit.  We got most of the downstairs cleaned up.  Gavin loves to clean,  so it was like a a break for him.  However,  it served a purpose and helped me to get caught up in the house before Lizze got home.  I need her to take over for a little while because I have a deadline to meet today for an article and I'm almost done with it. Pulling Gavin iht of his room defeated the purpose but let's be honest,  it's not going to make a difference.  He could stay…

I love my kids.  I love them more than anything in the entire world. I would die for my kids in a heart beat. Obviously,  I hope it never comes down to that but if need be.... Having said that,  my kids can also drive me completely bonkers.  In fact, today is one of those days where they they have me at the very brink of insanity.  Emmett has been screaming all day,  literally.  Elliott is egging him on and shedding tears over every little tiny thing. Lizze went to the store with her mother to try to finish our back to school shopping and has left me home to manage the chaos.  :-( To add to the stress,  Gavin has been letting himself out of his room and tippy…

Tomorrow is the first day of school for Elliott and Gavin. Elliott is going to do great once again.  There will likely be a period of adjustment for him but he'll be fine.  Gavin on the other hand is a mystery.  I have no idea how his return is going to go. There are a great many factors to worry about,  his health being the biggest concern. I have great concern that this return to school is going to be more than his body can take. Time will tell.  Lizze and I will have to speak with the school about his new restrictions and he will likely have to sit out of Martial Arts and recess.  We're going to have to see how those things go and decide what to…
