Learning without labels in Puerto Rico

Jan. 3, 2007

Happy New Year 2007!

Happy 2007! Well, the Christmas season has not finished in Puerto Rico; we still celebrate the Epifany on January 6. It's a tradition that is as important as Christmas because we see how Jesus Christ was presented to all, jews and gentils.

During the Christmas season we haven't not studied much, but enjoyed what Jesus has brought us during this time. We will try to start today... let's see if we can.

My son has worked several "autistic" issues during this time, including the fireworks on New Year's Eve. He was amazed by the lights and was not severely bothered by the noise (more than we were). That's a great success! I have always thought that the academic success will come if we work hard the issues that he has (hyposensitivity, obsessions, etc.) A friend that is a phychologist has told me that his ADHD issues are almost gone (that most of it is because he is an 8 years old boy and not because of the condition) and gives me the hope that he will live a "normal" life because his "autistic traits" are so mild at this moment. Now, it doesn't mean that I won't keep working. But there is always hope to a better day... Praise the Lord!
