She's Back

Haven't written for awhile. I like to write, have been journaling since I got hormones, but sometimes I take breaks - when living the life seems like enough work, let alone reviewing it.

But life has settled down. After our summer of camping, leading VBS, birthdays, my missions trip to Costa Rica, my husband's missions trip to Africa, and a family vacation to eastern Oregon, school started.

So Sharkboy is in 2nd grade now and doing fantastic. A little more maturity and a daily dose of Prozac have brought us miles from where we were 4 years ago. We still struggle on a daily basis, but he seems more stable and happier. I no longer want to end it all. That's progress, right?

Just got back from a trip to Haiti (Sharkboy actually stayed with friends!) and I've got my head focused on Christmas now. Christmas is a good season for Aspies with lots of excitement and stimulation. Sharkboy didn't just write a Christmas list for Santa - he drew a chart with illustrations and all. Classic.
