IEP Serenity Wish for Parents of Children with Autism and Other Developmental Disabilities

I’m still trying to sort out what I want my son's Individualized Education Plan to accomplish. It is an ever-evolving process, and one that is always at least a few steps behind where it should be. Here’s my version of a serenity wish:

May the great IEP wizard grant me:

The strength to help my son change what can be changed through a combination of effective and thoughtful programs, teachers, therapists and compensatory strategies.

Hey,
Regulations are very different here. We can't have an IEP without current evaluations.Today I ran across a book about preparing IEP's.
Unfortunately Josie was wiggling in my arms so I had to just drop it until another day. Like tomorrow. Monday is our first IEP,currently we have an IFSP(early intervention) Anyway, i'll be picking that book up tomorrow if I can get back there.
I hope things are working for your planning. Good Luck.and hang in there.

Hi,
Thanks for adding me as a friend. I read your comment on my blog. It's so overwhelming at times, isn't it. It's been a hell of a ride for me since Josie's diagnosis. The highest of highs, the very lowest lows.
Sure puts things into perspective and reminds one of what really matters most in this world. I no longer take anything for granted.
I look forward to speaking to you again.
Be well,
Leah
