So my son started school a little over 2 weeks ago and boy was i nerveous. He was transfered from the school that he had been at since Kindergarten. Although i was nerveous he seemed okay with it. At his new school he is mainstreamed all morning till 1130 and then he is in his special days class until the end of the day. While i like his new school i really have not made a connection with his new teacher. Last year his teacher was so wonderful and she is the reason that we even got him tested for Asperger's. Anyway,i am so proud of my son because he has adjusted really well to the new school and has even made new friends. Something new that he is doing is have very long goodbyes to us. He hugs us and then kisses us and then has us do a high five and then a "Secret" handshake. I don't know why this has happened but i think it is kind of cute and funny.
Sometimes i forget that my son has asperger's. I look at him and think that he is an "normal" child. Then we get into a socail situation and i realize that he is different but i think in a good way. I love my aspie so much and really wouldn't change anything about him because then he wouldn't be my son.

My son does the long goodbyes, too. We live across the street from his school and every morning I have to walk him to school (he could go by himself but doesn't want to) and then it's a whole series of kisses - butterfly kisses, nose kisses, regular kisses - and then he says "I love you" and I say "I love you too" and he repeats that over and over again like he is postponing going inside (though he likes school) until I have to practically shove him in the door...
yeah my husband got upset last night because my son wanted to go through the whole 10 min goodnight. So my husband said that he didn't have time so i ended up doing it..lol
