We went out today to have little shopping. Next week is the first birthday of our little girl so we made this day for Gareth because I planned of buying him new clothes for the event.

I don't know if Gareth will participate in his sister's event so I rented an inflatables just to keep him busy while we are waiting the guests.

So today we went to Greenhills and bought him 2 poloshirts. He is well behaved at Greenhills and so proud of him. Some kids with autism can't stay longer in crowded places but Gareth can take it. He use to stay at the mall, coffee shops and even cinemas.

As a mom, I always see to it to let him go out with us always so that he will get use to it and aware of the environment. My usual problem is sometimes he don't have awareness of danger. He is not aware of the other vehicles in the parking lot so we really can't let him go on his own. Most of the time hubby and I are holding him both just for his security.

Since Gareth attended therapy he is not as wild as before. He is learning to follow simple rules. If we are walking at the mall or at the streets he always reach our hands and wants us to hold him. This simply made me feel comfortable that he will not just run whenever we are not watching him.
