Gavin is massively struggling right now.  He had 2 enormous meltdowns today.  We are once again walking down the dark path of self-injury.  Today he beat himself up pretty good.  The 2nd meltdown was the worst,  by far.  He bruised his knuckles punching himself in the face. I'm not sure what we are supposed to do at this point. If the self-injury gets any worse,  we have have the consider the psychiatric ward at Akron Children's Hospital,  once again. Today has been exhausting for me and everyone else as well.  I'll have more information about what happened at some point tomorrow.  Right now,  I'm going to try and get some desperately needed rest tonight. I have begun losing track of the days.  I don't think that's a good thing.  I…

This is Gavin's latest and greatest Lego creation.  I don't know what it's called but he's really proud of it. Gavin has had a really rough day, in fact,  one of the worst in recent history. However,  I wanted to end the day for him on a positive note.  So I thought I would share something positive.  Here you go,  Gavin's nameless Lego creation. **Thanks for reading**        -Lost and Tired Please join our Community Autism Support Forum Posted from WordPress for Android so please forgive any typos as auto-correct and I don't see eye to eye. :-)

We were gone for a large portion of yesterday.  We had Gavin at the doctors and found out some new information. While we were away,  Elliott was at school,  Emmett was with my Mom and Bella and Maggie were in their respective kernels,  waiting for our return. It's so neat to watch Emmett and Bella reunite after spending time apart. Lizze got some cuter pictures but this one kinda caught them running to each other.  It was like you see in the movies.  All that was missing was a nice soundtrack. What you can't see in this picture is the dozens of tiny Bella footprints,  all over the front of Emmett's coat.  I know she's work and added responsibility but moments like this really make me grateful she's a member…

I would like you to meet Mr. I'll Never Take a Nap.  You may also know him as Elliott.  I made everyone lay down for a little while and Elliott made the biggest crocodile tears he could muster and swore up and down that he would never be able to sleep Literally five minutes later,  when I went upstairs to tuck him in,  this is what I found.  **Thanks for reading**        -Lost and Tired Please join our Community Autism Support Forum Posted from WordPress for Android so please forgive any typos as auto-correct and I don't see eye to eye. :-)

Let me tell you, Lost and Tired family has become meltdown central today. I've honestly lost track of how many  meltdowns we've had so far is afternoon. Gavin just got done having a colossal meltdown, Elliott's been super whiney all day long. Don't even get me started on my little Emmett John.  He is the world's most talented instigator.  He will push your buttons and drive you crazy,  all while being the cutest three year old in the world and without breaking a sweat. It's been absolutely constant so far today.  My goal for the cold and rainy Saturday afternoon,  is to find a place for the two oldest to go for the night. They need a break from Emmett and I need a break from the whole thing. **Thanks…

This is Emmett’s newest Lego creation.  He calls it,  "my Bowser,  Lego ship sword that used in Lego Star Wars".  Then he made the lightsaber sound and ran away. So there you have it folks. If you have ever wondered what a Bowser,  Lego ship sword,  from Lego Star Wars looked like,  wonder no more.  :-) **Thanks for reading**        -Lost and Tired Please join our Community Autism Support Forum Posted from WordPress for Android so please forgive any typos as auto-correct and I don't see eye to eye. :-)
