4thekidz's Bio
 

Hi I am a mother of a 6 year boy Evan. Married for several years. Evan was diagnosed with PDD-NOS when he was about 18months old. He also has sensory based issues, food issues, and behavioral difficulties. I new something was wrong when Evan and I attended our first Gymbore class when he was about a year old. The class was going great until the instructor dumped out a bunch of balls all over the place and Evan went crazy for "ALL" the blue balls. He would look across the gym and see that another child had a blue ball and he took off after that child and knuckled them to the floor until he got the blue ball. We attended the next class and the mothers began to look at me differently and guide their child away from Evan and I. Needless to stay we dropped out of baby Gymbore...LOL.....to this day blue is Evan's favorite color and will flip a nutty if another kid has a blue something or other. Every day is a challenge or a battle but at the end of the day I wouldn't do it any other way.

The Simpson's URG
on 12.21.07 - public

Why I agreed to this is beyond me. Evan latched onto the Simpson's movie at Wal-mart the other day...Only because it came with the "people" the people, the people, the people. Those people are going to kill me. So I didn't think he would even want to watch the movie. So in the midst of doing dishes and wiping of the dogs for the tenth time from the snow I hear "penis, penis" Evan is running through the house yelling that. Yeah for the SIMPSON'S. Well grampa stopped by today and endured the whole movie that was told by his loving 6 year old grandson. I was thinking the entire time, don't yell "penis" please! but sure enough he did. These moments are only understood by others with Autism in the house.
