Matilda's been going so well all year.... some minor setbacks....
Friday arvo had a school "celebration" that they put on for the families and some official politicians to accept some grants that the school received. We showed up at 3pm at the end of school to help with everything. I was in order of organising the food, I didn't do it all, just delegated and made a cake.
Well.... the "ceremony" started at 5pm, at 4.45pm Matilda started going flappy. She went happily enough to the ceremony, but afterwards.... she lasted 30 minutes and then started having issues with everything, than at 6.45... well the world ended. She had a huge meltdown whilst everyone else was around. We had to drop everything, pack up and leave. I carried her to the car while she scratched my face and kicked me. Then it took 10 minutes to put her in her seat. I ended up with blood on my face, DH had scratches all down his arm...
We got home and well.... it didn't get much better, at 8.30 she finally fell asleep.
Today she's been an anxious, flappy mess. I hate seeing her like this. She's doing everything she can to keep "high" and stimulated. She's just messy. Of course, I had to work today and she saved the final meltdown for me.
