Re: Outting with Dawn today

[Guest guest]

Kathy

you are so funny and so sweet

I swear we are on the same wavelength.

I was typing my post about " our outing " and I stopped to remind

you to look at Mars tonight and I read your post.

How funny - you were writing at the same time.

Kathy's - your kids were great!! cute, polite, pleasant, everyone had a

great time!!!! Who would have thought we could take 3 aspie boys, 6yr old,

12 yr od and a 14 yr old and take them somewhere that they all really

enjoyed.

(of course - it was a science museum - aka Aspie Heaven - LOL!)

Kathy is such a wonderful. Beautiful inside and out. It is not easy to

find

people like her. She is just as witty and funny in person as she is on the

list.

I can hardly wait for the next visit.

Dawn

( a proud card carrying member of the Mutual Admiration Society - )

Dawn and I got together at the lin Institute in Philadelphia

today. I had my three kids with me and she had her two. And a great

time was had by ALL!! Given the fact the my middle child - Braden -

NEVER has a great time, this is quite an accomplishment. I had done

what the psych had emphasized - I had prepared Braden in advance by

telling him that he would have to wait, walk, have boring moments, do

things at times that others wanted to and he didn't and EAT FOOD HE

DIDN'T LIKE...a HUGE problem for Braden that ALWAYS brings out his

grumpy side. To my amazement, Braden was a total pleasure today. He

even ate the cheeseburger he got, even though he didn't really like

it, and didn't get the least bit upset. I can't even explain how big

this moment was! I can only hope that he can repeat this again.

We all had a great time and Dawn's kids are adorable....and so are

you, Dawn!!

Kathy

p.s. And, uh, Dawn...I hope you get back there for that grossology

display..and if you do, please tell me where you found it!!!

Wow Kathy, that is great news about Braden! And I'm glad that ALL of you had a

great time.

in Massachusetts

P.S. Your poem showed up on another list a few weeks ago. It was credited to

you by someone who who said she " has no idea who you are. "

Tell her that I'm still trying to find myself and don't know who I

am either, but as soon as I do, I'll let her know. LOL!

Dawn,

aaaahhhh, thanks for the compliments. No wonder I have more fun with

you than my husband. We really did have a great day! I agree

that a science museum is a good place to take most aspies, but Braden

isn't ordinarily that science oriented so I am still boggling at how

consistantly well behaved he was. After all I have said about Braden

on this list, and then seeing him act like a perfect gentleman

yesterday, you must think I'm crazy and delusional. The truth is,

Dawn, my kids don't really have Asperger Syndrome. I just made it up

so I could join this list and find friends. I'm actually a member of

dozens of lists including Alien Abductees United and Petaholics

Anonymous (you might like to join this one.) LOL!!

Fania,

Yes it is, and I think I speak for Dawn too when I say that I wish

you could join us too!
