So where do I begin. I'm a Mother of 3 very Beautiful and very rambunctious Boys. Twin Boys, 3 yrs old and my oldest son is 6 yrs old. He was diagnosed with SPD last year. it affects his balance, motor skills, attention and ability to focuss or concentrate. He can't seem to stay still for long with a few exceptions. I often have to brace for impact with strong hugs and kisses that bruise sometimes. Personal grooming is always assisted but he tries and succeeds with a little coaxing. Ok a LOT of coaxing. We recently moved to Georgia with my family's support and blessing after the divorce. I wanted to give them more and knew it wasn't possible if I stayed. He's had so much to deal with. His dad left and he became a big brother of not just one but two baby brothers at the same time. I often think thats a lot for one little boy to handle. SPD is very difficult for me to comprehend. The more I learn the more confused i become. some things are more clear but some not so much. He's in a very good school so theres plenty of support. Now I'm trying to find resources to help us with therapy at home. We have fun as a family. Watch movies; play board games; go for walks and play follow the leader. He's always the leader and very proud of it. We play a lot with balloons because they move slower than playing ball so there's more time to catch or hit them. This is a good game for us. I'm visually impaired so it gives me a chance to be more active with them as I can't catch or throw or hit anything else lol. He loves playing his DS and he Loves to draw. He can spend the whole afternoon quietly drawing and explaining each picture as if telling a story. And for now he's upsest with Batman. That's something we share as I love to write and tell stories using the Boys as main charactors. which is easy being the wonderfully energetic mischievous ones they can be... sometimes. I am so grateful to have found this site. The worst is feeling alone. The best is finally having a name for what I knew in my heart. That something was not right and we needed help.
