A New pattern, a new diagnosis

Devin got another incident report for biting. He got moved to the 2 year old room. I think the move, the new kids, the new teachers are affecting his frustration level. I wasn't quite expecting this move, yet. He'll be offered the potty three times a day, but not forced to use it.

We also got confirmation that Devin is a carrier for thalisemia like me and Trevor. He was also a little anemic, but the doctor doesn't want to put him on iron until we know for sure he's iron deficient. He was so good when he gave that blood. He didn't even twitch, really. He was so good that the phlebotomist took an extra vial of blood! Seems like punishment, but I guess she knew what she was doing. Trevor was really good, too. He could have made it a very unhappy experience for all of us, but he quietly looked through a book and then accepted some stickers and a saf-t-pop.
