Something positive

We are onto the third week of positive behavior and activities. I'm keeping my fingers crossed but history keeps me on my toes.

Some positives:

• My niece Haydin is in town for writing camp and they are getting along really well. I was so pleasantly surprised since last year didn't go so well. In fact, today we are going to pick Marcus up and go see the new Percy Jackson movie so they can spend some time together. Not a usual activity for sure, but one earned. 
• Marcus and I went to the local Park Ave. fest and he used his allowance to buy a gift for his one-to-one aide. He really is a sweet kid. I love having times with him when this side of his personality comes through. 

All in all it's been a good three weeks. I am too jaded to exhale just yet however. But...you never know.
