Crossing the Creek

That's the name of the 8th grade graduation ceremony for my daughter. We received the information for it yesterday. It is hard to believe that in just a few weeks my daughter will be leaving one phase of her life and entering into another phase. I look forward to it, but it also scares me. A lot. What is it like at the high school? How will they respond when she has a complete meltdown? Where will she go for her cool off spot? If she doesn't do well in inclusion where will she go? How will her lack of maturity be seen? Etc. So many questions that I hope to have answered before the end of this school year.

On another note, my daughter just got invited to a sleep over. This will be a first for her. She only knows the girl having the sleep over. I am excited for her, but also nervous. How will she do? What if she gets over stimulated? Will the other girls think she is immature? At times she acts very mature and others she acts more like a ten year old. And how do I handle the medications?

Any comments/suggestions would be appreciated.
