Beth is doing some better. Her life has been to full of changes. And these

special kids Do Not like Change. Heck, I don't like changes. She has had quite

a few changes over the last few years.

Her brother moving out and getting Married in 2005 did hit her until she

graduated in 2006 and she realized where is Ken???? And now she begs for him

constantly. He comes to see her as much as he can. But he works alot. and does

most of the housework as his wife is going to nursing school. and works

part-time.

She and Ken were never really that close going up.

I lived in 2 worlds. 1 with Ken. He went to school here in our town. Beth went

to school 15 miles from our home. Ken has always been good to her. But I never

let her disability keep him from doing anything. Beth and me were always right

there with him.

I drove Beth's special needs school bus for the last 10 until she graduated and

I guess you could say I retired, quit whatever. The county would not let her

ride with me. So, I told them goodbye. She comes first. And I guess it was a

good thing. there is no way under the sun I could drive a bus now.

Boy am I chatty tonight. just so happy to find someone that understands.

Thanks , my DIL does have more personalities than anyone I have seen. But

of course since it was Christmas and she was getting gifts she has been in one

of her good personalities.

Hopefully after the first of the year so money will come available and she will

be able to get in some kind of program.

Hope you have had a good day.
