Kindergarten here we come

We met the teacher today and saw the classroom and I have to say I'm extremely exicited. Emma's new teacher taught Special Ed for 30 years then moved to Kindgergarten when they phased out Special Ed. This is her 5th year in Kindergarten. She seems like a no nonsense kind of gal. The classroom is very plain and well organized. The day is scheduled, and the kids know what they'll be doing when. I sent the teacher an e-mail this afternoon to give her lots of information about Emma. For the first time I'm actually excited about Kindergarten rather than fearful.

On top of that good bit I should have a referral and a pseudo diagnosis by tomorrow. E's Psychiatrist is taking my completed ASDS to a psychologist in her office for scoring this week. I marked nearly every response on it and made notes by most of the ones I didn't mark.

I just needed to share my good news. Yipee.

I'm so happy to hear how pleased you are with her kindergarten teacher! I know that agood teacher for our kids means the world of difference in their school year. Also congrats on the progress on the dx!
