Well, we got S's treatment plan approved, so ABA is going to start soon, hopefully next week already! I'm so excited for him! He may not think it's too fun the first few times, but I was AMAZED by what they were able to do in just the 2 days they were here doing his assessment! I think he's going to make tremendous strides very quickly. Look at me...I'm being optimistic for once! :)
The Brick Wall
Well, I hit it hard last weekend. I guess I had just been so busy with phone calls, appts, etc. that I hadn't let things sink in. Once everything was settled with insurance and ABA and I knew he'd be starting soon, it just hit me. It's not only the diagnosis, but I've also had a lot of other things going on. I started back to school on 8/25 AND E has been teething. So, sleep has been scarce. Not to mention, the constant screaming on E's part is taking me back to her colic days. Anyway, I had a "Calgon, take me away!" moment or two...then I put my big girl pants back on.
My First Day
I had my first face-to-face class last night from 5:30-9:30. It went really well and I think I'm going to enjoy it. School seems to be an 'escape' for me. If only 1 day a week for a few hours away, it really helps. Plus, the reading and assignments I do at home during naptimes and when the kids go down at night keep my mind from going a mile a minute thinking about schedules, therapies, errands, etc. I'm striving to keep that 4.0 this semester! :)
