    Thanks everyone for the support for next week. I think I'll just take it one step at a time and try not to pre-empt what's going to happen.

    Christy, I love that T-shirt idea - so true!

    Do you hit months or weeks that you just feel like you can't do it anymore?

    I know we've had a lot on our plates, we've had heaps happen over the last 6 weeks or so. But today, not just today if I'm being totally honest, I'm over life. I can't cope with a 2.5 yr old whinging in my ear all day. Matilda needs some OT stuff done today, she's absolutely frantic, but I can't do it. I did my back in this week and it just decided today that was it... I can't even do up her seatbelt in the car at the moment.

    I'm watching her cascade down today, and there is nothing IC an do about it, but get extremely angry and annoying with every little thing.... ARRRGGGHHHH

    Eeek I thought our thread had disappeared! Mods could we please have a link from the closed thread to here?

    Christy - yep having one of those weeks here - I am over it. even OT this week was unbearable - he is so loud and out of it!

    Maz - ditto on the hubby being a PITA - Dh was the same here DS left for school in tears and came home in tears - what a crap day! In fact I think today is possibly the scariest day of my life. Today after getting home from school got DD out and she walked to our gate then Xanny bolted! We live on a very busy street and I had to throw Ari over the fence and got and chase him down the street - why because his shoes were uncomfortable. He also had a relief teacher today for half the day who again got upset with his calling out.

    On the upside on the way to footy today Xander unravelled the relationship between multiplication and division and also started telling me what 4 groups of 5 was, 4 groups of 4 was and so on. He went to bed with the calculator :-)

    To those of you had assessments today - hope they went well!

    Appointment went really well, he read all results from school phyc, the report from speech the report from the kindy teacher and myself. He watched Korbin and talked to me for awhile and then started the assessment Within the first 15 to 20 mins into the assessment, he said. Korbin has autism.
    He needs to be refered on to a team, for it to be confimed. So i have an appointment for the speech part of the team on the 29th June, now just waiting to hear back from the psychologist team, i have an appointment with the pead again next Friday, he has written a letter to the school saying the has assessed Korbin and he is saying he has autism but can not be fully diagnosed until he has seen the rest of the team. FINALLY i am getting somewhere.

    MBP mum - that is great that you got some progress today! I remember the day we got DS diagnosis it was very bitter sweet. We were so relieved to have a reason but at the same time devasted that there was a reason. Hugs to you and your family and I hope the rest of the team meetings go as smoothly!

    PS - thanks mistyfying :-)
