Week 9: May 25-29

Tuesday, May 26 So sorry...this week and last have been so nuts.  Lots of behaviors to deal with, from both boys.  Trying medication for Adrian, but it's not yet strong enough to really have a positive effect.  Anxiety through the roof.  The you-know-what is hitting the fan.

He's just started to fill this in from the National Geo Kids website and a few others.
