My attempt at giving the uninformed some insight in to the world of autism.

So far so good

Well, it's been a few days since I posted anything. That's a good thing. For the most part, Mikey's been a good kid. The other day he had his mom up in the middle of the night pitching a fit for no obvious reason. I told her she should post what happened but I guess she hasn't gotten around to it.

His aunt Diana babysat for us Saturday night. She said he was going through the house opening and closing doors. We've never known him to do that before. Wifey figured he was probably just trying to find her since she's always the one to put him to bed. If I remember right, that was the night he had her up at 1 or 2 in the morning.

Other than that he's just been swinging outside, walking through the house on his tippy toes or hanging out in his room playing with his music making computers...which he makes play the same tune over and over until we're ready to pound our heads against a hard surface just to hear a different noise. But that's Mikey. I know we'd miss hearing those annoying songs if he wasn't there to play them. So we just holler his name and he stops...and plays the next tune over and over until we scream his name again. Then he plays tune #3 until our eyes are crossed and our tongues are hanging out of our mouth with drool collecting on our laps. And so on and so on in the life of Mikey. We love him like crazy. He makes sure of that!
