They will have me to deal with!

Another late night meant that the morning was less than successful and resulted in Boy Wonder still being in the shower fifteen minutes before we were due to leave. Boy Wonder was very hyper and difficult to co ordinate. He ate breakfast in a fashion and ran to the car.

The school day appeared to be okay although Boy Wonder seems to be having issues with Maths and is taking regular time out to process what he is meant to be doing. As the work is getting harder, Boy Wonder is really starting to have to think about things which he doesn't like doing. He has always been used to things just being easy so not knowing things instantly makes him feel like he is failing in his work.

After school, the play therapist came over for the second session. They played with play-doe and Cat Girl used her imagination to make various things. Boy Wonder made a dart board and a football pitch. He spoke very little and appeared to get agitated by small talk and the therapist not working quick enough for him! As soon as the session drew to a close we got ready to go to piano. Boy Wonder became high and skittish. He bounced around the room and kept shouting that he was going outside to the car. I stopped him several times as he was not in control and was likely to run off.

We went outside together and got into the car. Boy Wonder seemed to settle once we got going.  We went to piano first and then Ju Jitsu. Boy Wonder went to both without fuss and seemed to enjoy them.

Later at home Boy Wonder spoke about tomorrow's meeting that he was aware of as we had talked about it last night after he asked why I had met with his teacher. He said that he wanted help at school and he better get it if not they would have him to deal with! Yes they probably would! I explained that we were doing our best to help him and if he wanted to write his thoughts down for the meeting he could do so. Equally, if he didn't that was okay too.

Boy Wonder spent some time watching Minecraft and then read books and did some writing. I am not sure if some of the writing is for the meeting but I am sure that he will tell me if it is.
