Mandy moved!

Ok, so this is mostly just a link to my friend, Mandy's, blog, about her recent to move to Houston. She does a great job of summing up her experience with us over the past 2 1/2 years of working with Lewis. By the end, she was working with Lewis and Owen and was at our house (or in and out) chunks of just about every day. Needless to say, the past couple of weeks have been an adjustment. She knew the boys really well and easily worked with them, helping to teach them all kinds of things. She is pursuing Applied Behavior Analysis (the type of therapy we use at home) as a career now, which excites me because it is a field that is so needed when the rates of Autism have sky-rocketed and it is the one most proven method that works to change behaviors of kids with the disorder. Unfortunately, it is not commonly used in this area.....and when it is used, it is often not as accurate as it should be because there are so few board certified behavior analysts training others to do it. So, we wish Mandy the best of luck and beyond that--pray that God will use her to help so many families like ours to help our kids reach their full potential.

These pictures are not the best, but it is hard to take pictures of squirmy boys on an iPhone.
