Achivable accomplishments so far...

Dear diary,
I can't believe another week's gone. 
It's unbelievable, slowly creeping to the end of January. 
Need to think positively, a few of my accomplishments so far, since the beginning of this month. 
Well, my number one accomplishment, I'm back blogging. Doing something I personally enjoy. For now not every day and trying my hardest not writing at ridiculous early hours in the morning. I'm surprised my brain still active, not long after I came through the door after a long eight hour shift. Slowly I got myself into the flow of writing. There is a lot to share, however for now, I would like this post to be short.
Earlier today, before I went to work, Tim had an enjoyable piano class. He easily got back into the swing, practicing his scales and his three pieces, for his grade 1 exam.
Before his teacher came, I asked Tim, how ready do you feel about your grade one exam?
More than ready, Tim said, full of confidence.
Wow! I thought. 
In this case we need to speak to your teacher, and put you down for it.
Can't wait, he said. 
I'm glad, I said as I quickly shuffled through drawers searching for Tim's written diagnosis for autism, in between getting my last bits and pieces ready for work, before his teacher came. 
In my opinion, I think Tim has nothing to loose. He should definitely go for his grade one exam. I feel it will boost his confidence tremendously. 
I'm glad Tim enjoys music. It is therapeutic for him. Music makes him happy from the minute he's up to the minute he goes to bed. It calms him down whether he is playing by ear, or learning a new note. His passion for music continues to move forwards. One of his best accomplishments so far. 
Because of Tim's autistic diagnosis, finally the right support and positive attitude has helped him to move on gradually with his music and other things he's good at and enjoys doing. I will continue to write about our lives living with Tim and how our lives adjusted slowly to his needs because of his disability.  
Today I have a busy day ahead. I hope it is another good week for Tim, as he goes back to school. Once Tim's at school I will head straight to the shops to buy a new pair of comfortable shoes for work. I have training all day tomorrow, for a new job position I'm after. I'll Keep you posted of this accomplishment that may happen.

The piano videos are amazing. Your son improvisation is so good. X
Thank you Priscilla Montanez for your encouraging comment. Tim's amazing gift is music. When he plays the piano or the guitar, he is a very happy boy.
