Would You Believe?

I can't believe it!! First day back at school and we get yet ANOTHER phone call saying come and collect him he's been swearing, not following instructions and refusing to go to class!!! It wasn't even midday!! I know we have a meeting regarding his behaviour and stuff tomorrow but I was at least hoping he was going to be in class for the WHOLE day not at home again!! They don't even want him at school tomorrow so that makes for a disaster doesn't it!!

I found out this morning from the little dudes principal that they have a pupil free day on Thursday which I totally forgot about! So I had to find somewhere for him to go while we attend the psychologist appointment! Thankfully I was able to talk to Melinda and ask her if the little dude can stay with her while we go for this assessment. She said that it would be no problem. That's such a relief because the little dude loves going there and playing with her boys! So at least I can concentrate on the task of the day and I wont need to worry about my two being bored and fighting at the clinic we're going to!

I'm wondering what Susie is thinking about the phone call we got. We were visiting her this morning when the High School phones Mark's mobile. She's a member from church and she's broken and dislocated her ankle. Mark and I were there helping a little with the cleaning, washing and the kids. Her little ones don't go back until Wednesday because they're at a private school. I was telling her about the assessment we have this week and she believes that we wont have any problems with the diagnosis of Aspergers. She said that the big fella has it to some degree along with the ADHD. I'm just hoping that he is given that label (not that I want him labelled or anything) but it will open up so many more doors for us with help from Autism Victoria. They have so many different programmes and aids that we can utilize if he is diagnosed. Oh well not long to go before we find out anyway.

Now to keep this child busy until the meeting tomorrow afternoon. I'm thinking gardening, cleaning the bathroom, vacuuming, dusting and general cleaning may keep him busy until we need to leave for the High School. If he doesn't like it that is TOO BAD because he isn't home to have fun!!
