Logan is Amazing

For most of Logan's life we have seen him have a rough time in the summer.  He seems to get stressed out. At first we thought his autism was regressing his development again.  But September would come and Logan would be way past where he was in the spring.  Well, it is September and Logan is doing amazing.  When he needs to go to the bathroom, instead of just doing a dance or mumbling "baffroooom," he now says in a very clear voice "I need to go to the bathroom."  This afternoon Logan came down stairs and I said 'hi' to him.  He waved to me and said 'hi' and then turned to Amanda and said 'Hi, mom.'  Not bad for a non-verbal kid.  Yesterday, the kids were watching Star Wars and Logan took a straw and started using it as light sabre, even making the special effects.  That is from a kid who has shown almost no imaginative play.  We have caught Logan lately playing appropriately with toys.  It is all very exciting.  Another reason why September is my favourite month.
