Houston- WE HAVE PROGRESS! I repeat PROGRESS! Last night Little Bug and I worked on pointing, waiting, and turns just as he would with his wonderful Autism Education Teacher. He did an awesome job. He was able to wait 5 seconds! Now before we all scoff- as I did initially too- remember how long 5 seconds is. Remember that he is two and remember that at (insert your age here) you still have trouble waiting. GOOD JOB LITTLE BUG! He is doing so good with his pointing. Hopefully, after a few weeks of doing it consistently, we can add eye contact.
We only worked for about a half hour at a time, which when you two probably feels like an eternity. But, we did continuously work on it last night- during bath time and snack time. He did a really great job.
He is doing very well with his schedule. He runs over- actually excited to see it- and wants to know what he is going to do.
We had a great time playing last night, even more fun at bath time, and he went to sleep without any fights. All in all, a good day.

Yay Little Bug! I'm loving hearing these great updates! And, on a side note, I know exactly what you're talking about w/DN's parents. Hang in there. People in that region of the world don't seem to get things very quickly and are fairly obstinate in their opinions. They'll come around. :)
