Psychiatrist Appointment and more

Mason has an appointment to see a psychiatrist at Children's for January 7. So that's good, nice and quick. Maybe we can get some more insight into what's going on with the boy. The Risperidone is helping, so that's good, but hopefully a short term fix as we deal with the long term behaviours. Behavioural issues will be something we will always have to deal with, as Mason does not have the capability to understand and reason as we do. With him getting bigger, they will be harder to manage. He is almost 10 and is taller and heavier than average. He is also very solid and strong.

Mason has slept straight through the night all the way until 7:30 am two days in a row!!!!! I actually woke just before my alarm today!! I don't think Mason has had two full nights in a row since the spring, therefore... I haven't either! Except when he's been away for an overnight respite.

Mason is loving the snow. Anyone want to hire him? He does "random " snow shoveling! Shovels the snow wherever he feels like it. This is at school yesterday.

He also LOVES "art"! btw, doesn't a Santa scarf go great with a Hawaiian shirt?
