Maybe I'm the one who is a bit Aspy

Somethings happened this week that helped me to see how I am more like my students with Autism and Asperger's than different. I realized that my greatest joy comes from spending time with the kids. I enjoy my co-workers so much, and we do a lot to solve problems and help teachers and kids. We tag team cases all the time. But sometimes when we are all together as a group, especially if I enter into a meeting or discussion that is already in progress, I end up being a "just me". For those of you who don't know what being a just me is visit Michelle Garcia-Winner's website, www.socialthinking.com, and you will soon learn all you ever wanted to know. Well I can say one thing, I think it is great that God gave me something that helps me understand my students better. I just hope that I can develop the other things I need to be part of a working group, and a friend to my office mates, something I've always wanted to be.
