This morning was a little bit crazy, Adam spilled his morning drink on the couch. We cleaned it up, changed clothes, and got back into the morning routine without Adam beating him self up - he started to, but, thankfully, I was able to redirect him and keep him positive.

Interesting, perhaps OT can look at this. He spilled it when I placed it on his left side (reaching for it with his right hand. When I look at the couch, I realize that most spills happen when he is reaching across his body to pick something up. I remember a teacher of his mentioning that this quirk is often true of children who have suffered a stroke or other such damage. That aside, what is the assessment of Adam's motor abilities when Adam reaches to another quadrant. Mrs.. M, I believe this is an OT question, could you please have them hop on and leave a comment about this?

Adam wrapped up the morning by printing out his typing again. He has included another 15 lines or so from the Jimmy Neutron movie.
