Silas is in such a great place right now. He is full of compliments for others, thrives on social interaction with others, hasn't had a temper tantrum in months, is compliant (one of my favorite phrases is "okay mom!) and he loves school. I think it also helps that we are out of the theribble threes and that he is super tired at night, and so he sleeps great. At school he is learning great social skills, as well as being pushed to use his natural social gifts, and he brings that home and uses them with his family.
The "routine" is very important to Silas. He reminds me daily of "what's next" in his day which flows as follows: wake up, eat, get dressed, brush teeth, quiet play time, leave for school, school time, lunch time, quiet time, tech time (computer or t.v. on Fridays), snack time, bike ride, playing outside, supper, bath time, p.j.s, play time with daddy, books, bed.
Above are pictures of Silas having quiet time on the front porch recently, and two other pictures of some work he did during quiet time. I thought his drawing of a bee was so cute that I had to take a snap.
