Adventures in Autism

Today my SIL picked up B from school and brought him to my school.  I had a staff meeting I could not miss so she pitched in and helped out.  I still haven’t heard back from the district on the bus issue, but tomorrow we have an appointment at an autism-centric child care facility.  From the website and talking with them on the phone, I am really optimistic.  If transportation can get ironed out, we might just be in business!

When I met my SIL and B at the door to my school, B was wearing a jacket I’d never seen before.  His coat was in his backpack, and the jacket he was wearing is really nice, but not ours.  My SIL said it was not theirs either, so I decided to call the school.

One of his aides answered the phone in the special education department.  He had insisted the jacket was his at the end of the day, and told them all that “Mommy bought it!”  At least he was communicating, right?

I hope some poor boy isn’t freezing in the morning!
