Pragmatic Speech Therapy Austism Spectrum Disorder PDD

Today Devon (we call him Dev or Tiny) has speech therapy.  He is super smart but sometimes have a problem communicating his needs.

Shanay (we call her Nema) is also not feeling well (for real this time) so she is home from school.  There is a lot of coughing, sneezing, sniffling, and snoting going on in this house.  Can you say ewwwww?!  Thankfully, there are no fevers at this time.  I usually don't catch what the kids have simply because I refuse, I will myself to stay well because I have to. No one else is going to do my job for me.  Wondering does that really work? That's my story and I'm sticking to it. 

Deion has been accepted into a study for hyper kids,  he gets free treatment, $35 bucks, and a picture of his brain!  The study will be conducted over two days, I'll let you know how it turns out.

Look for research studies in your area, It's a great way to receive free treatmeant, a few extra bucks for your kid(s) and some answers.

I think Diggy pulled an all nighter doing a drawing last night.  He found out that college is way different from high school. 

Shayla did most of the dishes last night.  She only left the pots and pans.  The night before last she didn't do any of them. 

The younger kids and I talked to Tot and Nell on oovoo.  It's way better than text messaging which is so impersonal.  With video chat I can see and talk to the kids.  It's almost like being there....not really but isn't technology great?
