More thoughts

I spend a huge chunk of my waking hours thinking about all of this - mulling it over. I'm reading a very accessible book at the moment called "That's the Way I Think" by David Grant, which has been enormously insightful on dyslexia, dyspraxia and ADHD. Obviously our talking and thinking with our therapist and with Zack's is ongoing. I am still leaning on the schooling door, and have an appointment with a clinical psychologist for early June - this will help us to have something more tangible when going to schools and asking for a place. My hopes were, and still are, that we'll be able to find Zack a new school for year 5 but... it's going to require a miracle. Somewhere.
In the meantime though, I've been aware for some time now, that we only dwell on the negative and the difficult and the challenges. So much has happened in the past few years that it's almost eclipsed the happy memories of the early years with him. So I've started going through the archives and printing photos from 2011-2015. It's important for us all really to remember the happy, bubbly boy that still is inside there somewhere, and hopefully with the visual reference make it more possible.
As such here follow a few :
