One day I had Jesse drop Cooper off to me at school for the last half hour of the day. Cooper got to meet my students and the other teachers I work with.
He learned from his visit, which is something I always hope for him. I like to introduce him to different situations so I can challenge him to tolerate and not be afraid of things that are different than he's used to.

At first he wasn't really in his comfort zone. My students are big, noisy and a little unpredictable. Cooper learned to tolerate being touched by one of my VERY excited students. The boy laughed loud with his deep voice. It sounded scary, so Cooper wasn't sure what to do. I was thrilled he was able to trust me and he did as I said. In only a few minutes he was fine and completely unafraid. I LOVE when things turn out that way.
I was so busy making sure he behaved himself that I didn't take many pictures. I couldn't resist getting pictures of him hanging out on our Lead Teacher's lap. He acted like this was HIS SEAT and he was happy to stay there.
He was a perfect boy as you can well imagine.
