Daycare providers keep on quitting on Caleb after assuring my daughter that, oh yes, they know what autism is and they can take care of an autistic kid.  Why do they lie and leave her in the lurch?  She doesn't get even a week's notice.  Often just a day or few.  How can they do that to her job...her life?  My life?  It affects three households actually.  My 2nd son and I end up scrambling, putting things in our lives on hold and rearranging schedules too. 

So, I'm going to officially babysit him and Laylah, having read much material and having worked with him for years.  I won't back out unless I'm having surgery or am very ill.

I do have to put in a certain number of CNA hours every year.  I'm not sure how we're going to do that.  It makes my scheduling tougher too.  And it totally shoots my chance at getting a job with health insurance.
