    Poor DS1 - how is the arm?

    Its ok, badly bruised and causing him issues as its his left arm and thats the arm he writes with. He is still in pain and has had to swap beds with DS2 as normally DS1 sleeps on top bunk but can't climb the ladder:( A difficult situation for any child but his autism adds a whole new complicated level to the issue.

    Morning everyone.

    I am having a good morning so far; got to work and realised its only blimming FRIDAY!

    I have quite a lot to do today which I am going to get on with once I have a cup of tea. Can not get going with out that!

    I have an exciting weekend of car cleaning, food shopping and entertaining my DS. Last night while talking to my boyfriend I said to him 'our son' instead of mine.....it just fell out. I have been thinking about it all night and this morning. Why did I say that! He thinks its funny he thinks as Toby as his own I know he treats him that way and would do anything for him; but he does have a Dad who is active in his life which I need to remember. I think its because my boyfriend sees Toby so much more than his Dad does. I think I am going to ask Tobys Dad if instead of getting him from school every day until 5 (so like an hour and half a day) he spends a day at the weekend with him instead. You can understand what I mean a block of time other than a few hours.

    I am glad we are nearly half way through January not that I am wishing time away, but bring on next Christmas I hope to be buying then!

    Hope there are more signs of little roo - apologise I didn't see the other posts this is moving fast! x
