Be nice

You should not hate others because they might fill bad if you say shut up to somebody it will make them upset also. We should not hit and kick others and killothers and not fight. Remember this is Max telling you to be good and make Right choices.

Max now can read the Legos instructions. Here he is building a plane he got from Santa. I'm so proud of him.

Max's future plans.

Max informed me Sunday while I helped him shower. "Mom I'm serving my mission in Utah, getting married in Colorado and living in New York with my wife and you and dad."

Max's Prayer

Max gave prayer on yesterday food for lunch. Here is his prayer.

"Dear Heavenly Father,
Please bless our food. Please bless our duty to God and to our Country. Bless that we can get lots of money and be healthy.
In the name of Jesus Christ, Amen"

Too Many People...

Soon after Max got home from school we left for the doctors office for allergy shots. A Tuesday event we have been doing since last July. The last three times we have gone Max has had a hard time with more than a handful of people in the the waiting room. I have tried to take him on the day the office isn't as busy as other days and found Tuesday to be least crowded. Yesterday Max kept saying over and over while we waited the 30 minutes after he received his shot. "There are too many people in this room."
When we went to visit his grandma and relatives on his dad's side of the family for Christmas he had a difficult time with so many people there. He wanted to leave the minute we arrived. Even though he knew everyone and has known them since he was born he still couldn't handle all the people.
I have talked to several parents who have a child who deals with autism and some have had the same problem. I wonder if Max will ever be able to handle large groups of people around him. I'm greatful he is able to at least express his feelings. He can't tell you why it brothers him, but he can tell you when it's time to remove himself from a place that he is not happy being in.
Maybe as he gets older he can write about it on his blog.
