Hubby was away for a few days for work. While he was gone, A had a doctor appointment at Walter Reed (again) and W had a field trip with his general education class to Jamestown. The school did not have an aide to accompany him, so I elected to go.
Jamestown was a fun place! They had a very well done museum (that we didn't get to see much of), the Jamestown Fort, replicas of the ships which brought the settlers, and a construction of a Powhatan village. We will have to go as a family at another time so we can more leisurely explore all that is offered.
W did pretty well. He doesn't really talk to his classmates, but a few kids attempt to include him. His favorite part was the blacksmith. His least favorite was the Powhatan village, but that was because there were "dead things" (animals skins, hooves, a skull, and they were butchering a turtle while we were there) and W is generally grossed out by those things.
This week also brought an award ceremony at W's school. He has been working very hard and making improvements with his work AND behavior in class, so he received an award. Poor N had to basically skip her nap so we could be there, but I'm glad we could support him and W was so proud to be recognized.
And as his mama, I felt my heart swell.
