Relocating to a new site

Friends, I'm closing shop on this blog and moving over to Cecily. Mostly.

You'll find all the entries and new ones in a blog called Autism. Mostly. on the site.

Thanks for following the adventures of Bright Eyes. He starts school tomorrow (aaggh!), so I'll be keeping interested readers posted on the new site.

Ciao!

The new place

We are settled into our new place, and Bright Eyes loves it. In fact, he has had a remarkable transition. He was so well prepared for moving here that it hardly even registered as a blip. He hasn't asked to go home once. Even sharing a room (albeit with a partition) with his brother has been nothing like the trauma I thought it might be. I am extremely thankful.

I have had the privilege of spending the last two days with him alone while the other kids went to school and preschool and we did a whole lot of RDI - probably the best we've ever done. It was great to have nothing else to do, and plenty of time to wait for him to participate.

The next BIG thing is school next week. He's going three days, for two hours each day. I'm nervous. My daughter is also nervous of how he'll be received. I'm hopeful it will be a positive experience for him. I'd appreciate any prayers you want to offer up for him...
