Happy Thanksgiving!

One more day to go. I am so looking forward to Thanks giving and the little vacation that goes along with it! James' school has its annual Thanksgiving pageant and feast tomorrow. It's the first year in the big auditorium.  At first James was the only kid in his class who liked the space.  I hope that changed. Sometimes autistic kids get overwhelmed by spaces, too big, too small, too noisy, too bright.  I hope it goes well. Either way, I have my camera ready! Then we hightail it over the Verrazano and head to the beach to start cooking!  Our shindig starts around noon, with most of the gang coming for appetizers but only about 6 for dinner (who knows how long James can sit). Regardless, it's wonderful that we can stay in one spot all day, especially where James so comfortable. Yet another little thing to be thankful for, part of a VERY long list this year. 
Thank you God. Thank you for our sweet beautiful James.
