Yesterday, was hard, and well I almost had a complete meltdown. We had to take the bus with Byron to speech and ot yesterday. Jack Droped us off at the hub, as soon as he left. Poor Byron had a complete meltdown, I was scratched on my face , arms and chest. My hair was pulled out in small clumps. Byron well he got so worked up, he broke a blood vessel in his eye. We got to the first drop off. I got us breakfast and Byron was a lot calmier.

Well he was great on the rest of the bus trips, he had a great therapy session. His therapist did all he stuff on the trampoline, so Byron could work on bouncing. Byron said green, red, yellow and bird. I was so proud of him. His therapist says she wished she had more parents like jack and I. We ask questions, we don't give in, we make Byron work, we make Byron speak. They made me cry, I don't see what I do is so amassing. I just make him use his words, try new food, sounds. He has consenquenes for his actions, I'm firm, fair and very loving.

So after therapy our bus was late, so we missed out connection bus. So Byron and I were stuck at a grocery store for a hr. So I got us lunch, I got Byron 3 awesome cars, then it was time to get on the bus. When we got to the hub, Byron was passed out cold in my arms. This kind woman saw me struggling with my sleeping child, bag and stroller. She took the stroller helped me get in up and helped me get Byron comfy in it. She gave me a big hug and told I am a wonderful mom.

So normally I would walk the 3 1/2 miles home. But it was black and starting to get nasty. I calked my neighbor he came and got us. It felt so wonderful to be home. Once I got Byron comfy, I had my cry over the whole day. My heart broke, my angels eye, the people who stared at him during his meltdown. I called 2 friends and bawled, it felt good.

Today I feel a lot better. Byrons eye looks the same, he's happy. So far no meltdowns........well I hope none for today.
