Well, we have been doing the therapeutic listening with Mr C for about 3 1/2 weeks currently and I have just really started to notice a major difference in his attention. Today his teacher that is tutoring him for us over the summer even said she noticed a substantial improvement in his attention and ability to independently do a task.
So, at this point I am pretty excited about the results. His language seems to get better everyday and he is even starting to use a little bit of sarcasm, which can actually be pretty funny. We are continuing to have some difficulties with his eating habits, but I guess that is somewhat typical for a 3 year old. His obsession with plain tortillas is something I really can't quite understand.
Yesterday, he cried as if he was absolutely devastated when we had told him we were out. It didn't help that he was exhausted from a long day, but I was suprised that he seems so attached to this seemingly dull food item. Could it be his comfort food?
A friend of my mother's has a son with Sensory Processing Disorder and said that for the longest time he would only eat bread and cheese. We are lucky not to be in that position as I limit these foods unless he has eaten fruits or vegetables, but he definitely could be described as a cheese and white carb lover. Lately, he is willing to simply not even eat unless it's one of these items, but we keep on trying.
