One on One on One on One on One

That is all we hear. But, I guess I understand. It is recommended that any therapy that Gavin starts needs to be practiced no less than 25 hours a week, one on one, and up to 40 per week being the most beneficial, again, one on one.

That is why they are recommending outside therapy. As long as there is a phone to answer, dishes to clean up, ect... we can't possibly do so at home. We kinda thought that Jules schooling would be less expensive, so we'll put her in school, which she is VERY ready for and then be home with Gavin and work for 5-7 hours a day. Then they say, he'll learn better from someone that isn't family. UG! Kinda puts you a position.

Oh well... I guess we know where we are headed... and that is school for Gavin! I think aside from being good for him, he'll enjoy it.

Lately he's been a bit agressive, but based on our journaling, it is that time in the behavior cycle he seems to have. Juliana isn't the most sturdy little person, and Gavin knows that he can easily push her over. And does. He's pretty mean to the dog, thankfully she just lies there. When he's like this he's generally *sensory seeking* so if he does some jumping on the trampoline, or deep pressure activities, that can usually help it. It is just hard to see him mean, because he isn't meaning to be that way. He is a very sweet kid.

That is all for right now. Gotta go break up the fight over a book. She likes to read, he likes to scoot it across the floor.....
