Autism Parent to Parent

After a fairly low-key summer, the beginning of school began! So far... so good for us! :) (crossing my fingers and knocking on wood!) Two AMAZING educational interventions happened for our youngest this year! First of all, he was evaluated and recommended to receive music therapy! He is now receiving music therapy once a week at school from a music therapist!!! YAY!!!! Also, the school cafeteria is providing him with GFCF foods for breakfast and lunch.. (NOT an easy task people!!!) We have had him completely GFCF for 2 years, and 6 pages of paperwork later... he has GFCF meals at school. NOW the challenge is getting him to eat "Cafeteria food!"  I hope everyone is starting the year off great. My oldest son has been bitten by the theatre bug - and will be auditioning for a play at our local theatre next week! In addition to his guitar lessons and choir at school, he is staying busy and fitting in with the other kids! I am SO happy that he found his little "clique". Our family is at an awesome place right now, and I am so proud of our boys, and how well this year is going so far... Hopefully, I will be singing the same song in a month or two!  Blessings and Hugs!!! - Tiff
