Anxiety showing at school

Today when Jill picked Liam up at school she got to talk with his teacher. She told Jill she noticed quite a bit of anxiety in Liam at the beginning of class. She tried to talk to him to see if he could tell her, and he couldn’t. His teacher noticed that after they had snack he seemed to relax a little and partake in class. Jill and his teacher couldn’t pinpoint any reason for his anxiety. They will continue to see how he does Thursday and next week.
This afternoon when I got home from work Liam was in good spirits, but seemed quite hyper. When Liam was done with dinner he was running all over the house with his shirt off. His brother Brendan helped him along as they were playing together.

Grandma McIlwee came over to watch the boys as Jill and I went to a meeting for the Autism Society of Cleveland. I met with the president and vice president of the organization last week to offer my services and help to make this organization a valuable resource for the Greater Cleveland area. Jill is a tremendous asset with all the knowledge she has gained working with Liam. Most of the information at the meeting was information she knew already. A mother behind her came to the meeting as her son had just been diagnosed with borderline autism. She was there to gain knowledge and learn what she has to do. Jill was kind enough to share with her some tips, as well as other parents from the group. When the meeting was done and we talked with other parents it is clear that this organization can and needs to be a valuable resource for the Cleveland area. In the coming months I will be working with the president and vice president to help reach those goals. Jill and I both feel very positive about this organization. The amount of knowledge to be learned out there is astronomical. Jill and I look forward to the future with this organization.
