Friday....

Well- Marcus had a great practice last night- hoping he will do as well tomorrow- yep we have our first meet of the season- I will post pictures tomorrow or Sunday-
He has come a long way in the past year- and today proved I have as well- of course I have some amazing mentors that have help me deal with him

Well today he got in trouble at the end of the day- running into the classroom and denying it- then getting ugly - would not sit with his seat belt on - and then had to be taken off the bus- ran from the behavioral specialist -I believe hit him as well and tried to bite him- would not talk with him- when I got there he was in the regressive frame of mind- but hey I kept calm- it is easy to do when you have additional help- and actually Marcus talked with me - we sat on the floor- he admitted everything which was a HUGE step- and he also admitted he brought something to school without permission and new what was to happen- HUGE step- he then spoke with Mr Carini and apologized for all that had happened-

I love his school and the teachers there- they care so much for the success of Marcus- and have so much patience!!! Thanks Lake Myrtle Elementary School you have the best of the best there.

So we are in Clearwater and Lori and Stacy's so we do not have to get up as early for the meet- we do have to be there at 8 because Marcus runs early the 1500 and 800 - he should do very well if he stays focused.
