Is he talking yet?

The last couple of months have been wonderful with Corey. He has been a lot like he was before puberty hit and it's great to see. I am sure the medication, along with the school move, and also his age is the cause. V was talking about how great it was to start up his community inclusion activities again. The last couple of years have been such a nightmare but now she can take him to the park or bowling again. I made a few changes at home too. This year Corey is riding the bus from home instead of V's house. Because of this he is no longer spending the night during the week. He does spend the night once a week but for awhile there he was spending almost every day with her. But now we are back to normal so to speak. I also took Cam out of after school this year and he is riding the bus home. I am paying my mom to look after him for a couple of hours so for the 1st time in Cam's life he is able to come home after school. There were times when he had to leave 2 hours before school and ride the van to school and then spend 3 to 4 hours at after school. Imagine a 5 or 6 year old leaving the house at 6 in the morning and then not coming home until after 7 at night. I had Corey's annual last week and I was able to secure his funding for another year and I even got more respite hours to make up for the gap he will need filled with his new after school schedule. All good things right?

So what does my mom, mother in law, and family ask? "Is Corey talking yet?"...
