Calendars have become a new obsession for Weston. He's really obsessed w/ Friday the 13th this month. We had a conversation a couple of days ago about how many Friday the 13ths can happen in one year, which day of the month the First of the month will fall on so that you can have a Friday the 13th. He started telling me which months would have a friday the 13th next year, and the next. Then he started getting into Friday the 13th and what might happen at 1300 hrs and 13 min.

Anyway, when I brought this up at Weston's IEP meeting yesterday, the teachers were amazed that he'd put time into thinking about it. They said they'd keep these things in mind, but the looks on their faces made me think they thought he was just strange. I do think it might have given them just a small glimpse into what he's really like (they think he's just this super quiet kid that talks like a little professor).

I'm hoping that Friday the 13th is just another day on the calendar and he really isn't obsessing over things all day!
