Writer's Block



There's much going on here right now, but I seem to have little to say. I've been pondering my next blog post, with little inspiration. Hmmm. I guess you all just get to enjoy the silence from my end!

The above three sentences were penned back in early summer and saved in my "drafts", for I just haven't had the inclinication to write. Well, I think that may be about to change as I have been thinking about blog posts the last few days, and one particular thing keeps coming to mind that I want to write about. There have been many, many things, but I have been too busy soaking it all in to take time to write...



  • Rob started kindergarten - as a 5yo, not a 6yo, as we originally thought he would have to do.

  • Rob started kindergarten WITHOUT an IEP, as we originaly thought he would have to do.

  • Rob started kindergarten about 1 week after he was discharged (i.e. graduated) from his final therapy (speech and language therapy) because he gained three "developmental years" in the last year.

  • Rob started kindergarten, and he is so thrilled/happy/excited that it is impossible to be (very) sad or (very) lonely.

  • The above picture is, obviously, Rob on the first day of kindergarten. We were waiting for the bus which forgot him, but we had a great time anticipating and being excited...before rushing to the car for a quick drive to school!


But, believe it or not, Rob starting kindergarten is not what I feel pressed to write about...more later this weekend. I feel like I have missed documenting so many things in this blog, but I have to remind myself that I really write this blog for me...when I feel the need to write. I am so prone to guilt trips that I refuse to feel guilty about the holes and lapses in this little 'ole blog, just so you know.
