Donna,

This really brightens my day. I have had these kind before, and it is so

wonderful that you can laugh about it.

Let us know where you get to go to dinner!

huh?, that this is the same kid who can be so non-responsive. I am a totally

different mother with the younger two than I was with my first 3, as they

often remind me. >>

OK Donna, I am rolling on the floor laughing. I can picture this--been

there, done that! Some people just have no sense of humor--maybe she aimed

with that shoe!! I am also frequently reminded that I am a different mother,

usually it sounds something like " You NEVER would have let us get away with

that! " Live and learn....

i think its kinda great in a way she threw the shoe..... i think it teaches

the uneducable ingrates in today's world that special needs kids have

personalities even if they exhibit it by throwing shoes. heheheh so

funny,,,,,, we should also be thankful she has arms to throw shoes with and

so should the man she whopped with it...........lmao take care all...........

HAPPY TO BE A MOM TO SHOE THROWERS IN VA, LEAH

Donna -- What a story - LOL!!!! Obviously, Bob and I are not the only ones

with stories like this. We have some doosies too! Restaurants are

especially challenging places for - like when she tries to overturn

the tables. We went to a Chinese restaurant recently -- she loves rice, the

food comes FAST -- it was a total disaster!! She almost overturned the

table twice, yelled out constantly, threw things on the floor, spilled water

glasses and pulled the hair of her dinner companions. Before the food even

came my DH was about to have a nervous breakdown, so I asked the waitress to

put our meal in carry-out cartons and we took it home. People in the

restaurant were looking at us, but most were looks of sympathy. And the

waitress was very kind about the whole thing. The only " safe " place for her

is Mcs!

LOLOL Maureen. I know!! I remember when we were down in Baltimore last year

for Maddie's visit with Dr. Capone. Duff and I took her to a very nice

restaurant at the Inner Harbor. Beautiful windows looking out on the water.

By the time we left, they were covered in mashed potatoes, which were also on

the CEILING!!!!!! They were wonderful about it and we lucked out in that we

were the only ones in the restaurant at the time (we had an early dinner and

went back to our hotel).
