Anyone have a nice glass of wine for me later tonight? I may need it.
Tonight is sneak peek night for 5th graders at Cait's youth group. Mike wants to go because Cait is always talking about how much she loves it. Plus you get a junk food snack at the end. (A high delight for all my kids who are denied such pleasures at home)
This sort of thing is typically a recipe for disaster for Mike. Lots of new people, lots of movement, different activities and schedule each week, lots of listening and discussions.
I would love for this to be something he and I can do together. I would love if I can use it for teaching social skills with him. I would love for him to be able to do something like this but I don't have my hopes up too high. This is a kid who can't handle special olympics when there are changes there.
So my dream is that he and I could go each week, a success would be if he could do well tonight and then use his words to say he didn't want to go back. However, I don't see either of those happening and would be happy if he just made it through tonight and save the impending meltdown for another day.
