It's all good

The Boy has had daily (M-F) ABA therapy for one month now, and it absolutely shows. He speaks in sentences about 50% of the time, he verbalizes his wants and needs, there is less whining and he is much less aggressive.
He was able to handle a drive to Half Moon Bay and be in a crowded, loud, strange place for two hours without losing control. He rode a horse without so much as a whimper and was able to ask for a specific treat, being ice cream. His teacher is also amazing. The Boy loves going to school and even asks to go on the weekends. He has also been (more often than not) gluten-free for over a year now. Everything is working together, and the result is a four year old autistic boy who verbally and emotionally resembles a neurotypical four year old boy. I can't even tell you how amazing that is for us. =)
