Hope, Joy, and Life while Adventuring with Autism. Thursday, September 6, 2012. Swimmin' in Lake Superior. And down we go to sit for a bit. He is not a deep water swimmer yet, doesn't like being in over his head, but he can swim underwater and down beach for a long ways without touching. He loves it, and it is a joy to be with him out there. I have never been in the lake just swimming so much in my life, and it is good. Labels: Life in Duluth. Tuesday, September 4, 2012.

Hope, Joy, and Life while Adventuring with Autism. Thursday, February 28, 2013. From Minnesota, to California, and back again. We have been assessed, examined, tested, and taught. We have just returned from the world renowned Koegel Autism Center at UCSB, and life is good. It is not easy. It is not straight forward. It is not complete. But it is good. Very, very good. What was it like? Saturday, February 16, 2013. Big Things on the Horizon. Do we have a prayer for an independent life? What You Can Do Rig...

Beth Up North: California Workshop Days
http://bethupnorth.blogspot.com/2013/03/california-workshop-days.html
Hope, Joy, and Life while Adventuring with Autism. Thursday, March 28, 2013. It's not magic, and it's not rocket science, but PRT is definitely a new way of thinking. Our final two days in Santa Barbara, California last month were where the rubber hit the road. Alex had been tested and assessed, and they found the areas that we needed to work on. These areas were:. What it means to be On-topic. Specifically addressed items beyond or within the initial areas were:. What parents should do when acting out.

Hope, Joy, and Life while Adventuring with Autism. Saturday, March 31, 2012. Which leads me to my current amusements, and the reason I started writing in my near exhaustion state. Alex has started initiating more and more novel things over the last year, trying things rather than staying in his safety zone. Branching out in new and interesting ways, often when I least expect it. So, what now? Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Duluth, Minnesota, United States. View my complete profile. Therapies Used at Home.

Hope, Joy, and Life while Adventuring with Autism. Monday, March 16, 2015. My dad had a FIVE speed, but I was never tall enough with that darn top bar in the way. As a teen I begged and begged, and finally got a new-fangled 10 speed. Life was good. Biking, I think we finally gotcha. Time for a little update in blog-land. We started Alex at a fine learning center, to help boost academics, and he has been working hard and developing many great skills. On a sad note, we lost our cat of 19 years. Bee...I sti...

Beth Up North: Bedtime Limited Offer
http://bethupnorth.blogspot.com/2013/08/bedtime-limited-offer.html
Hope, Joy, and Life while Adventuring with Autism. Wednesday, August 7, 2013. The time is now to write up our sweet bedtime routine, as it fades out. I knew it would not last forever, but have enjoyed it ever so much. So have fun. Speak in funny voices when the time is right. Roll turtles up a little boys back. Kiss those sweet cheeks. Play hard. Sleep hard. Think hard. Dream hard. Life is fleeting, but it sure can be divine. Love you all, Bruce and Jean. August 9, 2013 at 8:59 PM. Therapies Used at Home.

Hope, Joy, and Life while Adventuring with Autism. Tuesday, February 7, 2012. Temple Grandin Part 2. Now, how do we know how big Temple's Amygdylla is? Well, she noted she has had many brain scans for scientific purposes. One large set for a US government study, and another set for the NFL! There is much more to say, but my son needs his earned computer time, so I will post Part 1 now. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Duluth, Minnesota, United States. View my complete profile.

Beth Up North: Optimal Outcomes
http://bethupnorth.blogspot.com/2013/07/optimal-outcomes.html
Hope, Joy, and Life while Adventuring with Autism. Tuesday, July 16, 2013. Between 3 and 25% of most cohorts appear to lose the diagnosis [of autism]." Lose. Gone No longer applies. We have long suspected the possibility, and seen hints here and there. We knew it happened for other kids, but we sometimes barely dared to hope. We rarely dared to voice it. Especially not to average professionals. But we still worked towards it every day. How does this happen? What does this mean? View my complete profile.

Hope, Joy, and Life while Adventuring with Autism. Friday, September 6, 2013. This is the house that Love built. There are stacks of wood. We have a shop where man dwells. Our boy has Garfield books. A bike with no pedals. We go jump in a river. We laugh and laugh. This house is small. We try to fill it with the important things. Our adventures are big. Family, friends, California. Winter, Spring, Summer, Fall. We run, jump, ski. The house that Love built. It is our home. Come see us some time. When life...
