Next week Kaylia has a "dress up day" at school ..... she's sposed to go as the cartoon character 'Mrs Giggles' ...... how appropriate! Last night at bed time she had a bad case of the giggles and it was hard work to manage her down..... we get her to concentrate on her breathing and this controls it for a few minutes till she starts again. The breathing exercise continues till she falls asleep. The problem is that she stims off the giggling.
Regardless of this, she's a truly delightful child and we're so fortunate. Despite .... or maybe because of .... her developmental delay, she is very pleasant to have around .... most of the time. Of course the delay means that we will probably have her teenage tantrums when she's in her mid 20's! We just hope that her communication ability has progressed enough by then.
