Swimming again

Hello everyone. Thing are in a holding path right now, and we're plugging along. The kids were out of school all last week because of snow and that was hard. Hope that doesn't happen again. Ben got very bored and restless and for the most part, we were snow bound and couldn't go anywhere. Things are better this week and on Monday Ben got to start swimming with me at a local Therapy Pool for people with disabilities. He is going at the same time his class at school goes, but since it's in the afternoon after he gets out of school, I have to swim with him. It was a lot of fun and he enjoyed it, as I expected he would. I have an interview with a college student today to help me in the afternoons. I hope she works out. I really need someone. Ben's stimming and spitting has not decreased any lately, he's still going at it as he always has. He's been sleeping through the night though, but I think it's because I have not given him anything to help him fall asleep. It seems that when I let him do it on his own, he sleeps better. So we've forgone the melatonin and Clonadine. Sometimes he's awake for over an hour after bedtime, but I'm learning to live with that if it means he'll sleep all night.
