school tales randomnings

No doubt I think Bristel is one of the most adorable and hilarious kids I've ever met.


Her antics often leave me glowing with pride and joy and hilarity.  


Like yesterday's for instance.  


Evidently she rode the bus beside on of her classmates who happens to be the big brother to one of Trevy's classmates.  According to Bristel they spent the five minute bouncing ride chatting about ways to help their little brothers learn!  


You're glowing too aren't you?! 


**********


Trevy loves his Miss. Speech.  Miss. May May tells me he cries every time Miss. Speech leaves the room without him!  


There are no words to describe the warmth in my heart knowing the quality of the people working with and loving my little man!  I truly feel blessed!

Toby and I have gotten off to a bumpy start working with his new online curriculum.  It's really really nifty.  But new.  Which means a learning curve.  



Toby does not do very well with changes.  



Day One was a bit of a nightmare actually!  It was especially frustrating for him that the computer will not accept inaccurate spelling!  Let's just say that's one of his needs work areas.  



::smile:: 



It helped that daddy (who was homeschooled all the way through high school!) has been raving about how coooool Monarch is!  



It also helps that Toby and I can send email messages back and forth to each other via our very own webpages.  He sent me this one yesterday...



im sorry about that mistake. I gess I should always check my emails after each subject and I shouldent of thorne (thrown) a fit yesterday.Oh I should always check before school too. I love Monarch it is very fun unless you think its dum the first day hehehehe just joking I do think its fun.

a different kind of muscle — guardianship process

  To all the parents who have walked through the guardianship process — my heart is with you. Our paperwork is prepped and ready to submit this week. He turns 18 on April 3rd. I've been thinking about this for a year now, but only just mustered the energy to move forward — the loom of his birthday my propellant. Overwhelm has paralyzing effect. I'm struggling to recall the last time I didn't feel overwhelmed. It struck me how all these years of walking through disability beside Trevor should have made me stronger and yet... I suppose it's a different kind of muscle being developed.

No, I don’t know him personally

  I’ve had several emails today asking if I know Mike W. of Marissa’s Bunny personally.    Trevy’s blog was linked on her site.  Although it’s not now.     I’ve posted here and there at his request.  Because…well…we’re a community.  Us IS families.  And Marissa is wicked cute.  Her daddy has a way with words.  Also who wouldn’t want the world to know about an iPad give-away?    But aside from that…I know about as much as you do.    We’ve never met in person.    Our only communication has been cyber.    I’m a ginormous sap and as such would love to believe that all is right.  That the sweet, beautiful families who were promised iPads will be getting them tonight.  Tomorrow at the latest.  That no one has been lied to.  That the personal thank you for your generosity email I sent him on behalf of other IS families I’ve grown to love and was thrilled to learn w...

the great answer hunt in the land of Infantile Spasms

If I've said it once... I've thought it a million times more. How it's like the more I research...and discover...about IS. The more blurry everything becomes. For every answer found. A dozen questions are unearthed. Remember our whole ARX saga ? Yeah...that threw me for a loop. So much so...that I never went on to post the end of the story. Thus far... See...the unbelievable in the world of genes happened. Because this is IS-ville after all. After Dr. Genes sampled Trevy's ARX gene on a whim...a whim which revealed an unkown (meaning the first time this specific change was found) mild mutation...she proceeded to send Toby's blood off to mad scientist central. With assurances that this was totally unnecessary . She was convinced that Trevor's ARX mutation was the underlying cause of his Infantile Spasms. And that Typical Toby...would prove to be just that. Typical...at least in all areas mutate-able. And yet...Toby's ARX blood sample revealed THE SAME MIL...
