Tonight Ed and I took Marisa, Edward and Ethan to see Shrek Forever After. I was so impressed with the way the boys behaved, especially Ethan. Even though he has been diagnosed on the Autism Spectrum (recent) and does not like loud noises or new situations he handled it very well. He did not melt down or cry at all. He did say a couple of times he was ready to go home but that was it. Of course he held his earlobes when it was too loud or something bothered him but he did not do that for the entire movie. They sat and watched the movie, ate their popcorn and drank their soda. I am so proud of the way the two of them handled it. It was the first movie we have taken them to since they were 2 and we took them to see Wall-E, which we had to leave early due to screaming. They both said they would like to see Toy Story 3 when it comes to this theater (it’s the discount theater). What a huge step for Ethan today was. :)
Oh, Jessica did not go with us because she was at Guard practice plus she saw the movie yesterday with her boyfriend.
