It's been a rocky road for my little fellow. He is tired from no naps, and I also had fever and a virus, but three days in a row, the school nurse asked me to come and pick him up because he was crying nonstop. The last day, she called me just as I was getting in the car to pick him and she said never mind, he has fallen asleep.
I feel very guilty about this full day of school and therapy sessions. When my daughter was this age, she had only a couple of hours of school a day, and the rest of the time was for activities and playing. I know they probably build all that into his day, and also that he would just withdraw into himself if he didn't have school. I am just being a big ol' softie...😭
Looks like back-to-school is tough on the whole family!
We are thinking of applying for some respite care. We are just exhausted from having no break, and since he is not so easy to babysit, we cannot easily find care for the kids so we can get away for the occasional evening.
On an amusing note, my son knows we are admiring him in his new school fashions, and he is quite the clothes horse himself, so he presents himself in the kitchen every morning for me to ooh and aaah over. Too funny!
Write soon!
Mahika.
