AMAZING Day!!!

Oct 22, 2007 | Autism

Every once in a while Molly comes out of her little world and stuns us. Tonight was one of those nights. She had a VERY long day, but still managed to amaze us, and her teachers.

She got up about 7:30 AM today (early for her, usual is about 9:30), and we fed them and took them for K’s feeding study (see below). Afterward we had to take Molly directly to preschool, without a nap. I thought I’d pick her up and they’d say she was a horribly unhappy child. I got told the OPPOSITE!! They said she was talking up a storm…even a couple of full sentences like “read a book” and “shut the door”!!!

Amazed, I took her and K and DC to DC’s parent-teacher conference where she was somewhat reserved. Got her home, laid her down for approx. 1.5 hours, and then got them up to get ready for Molly’s parent-teacher conference.

I don’t know when the aliens came and took my baby and replaced her…but whoever the child I had tonight was…OH MY GOD! She talked…and talked…and talked. And about 25% of it was intelligible!!! Real sentences. Real jabber sentences (involving pointing at me to get her point across)…jabber mixed with real words…”Look! Car!! *jabber jabber jabber* Look! Is wet!”

She stayed like that through her parent teacher conference all the way until we came home…amazing her teachers/threapists…and daddy!!! And ME!! Sometimes she is so amazing, it makes my heart swell!!!
