ID Bracelet

Jake found Will’s ID bracelet. Will had hidden it in the bottom of the toy bucket. It was a pretty good hiding spot because it’s been lost for months! I attached it to his wrist on Saturday. He started wailing. I heard a lot of “No’s” and “help please!” When I continued trying to attach it to his wrist he started calling to Brianne for help. “Brianne help off please!” She looked at me with bitterness. I tried to explain that it was for safety. But he kept screaming. I believe there was even a swear word spoken -- twice.

I had the brilliant thought of writing him a social story. (Unfortunately for William, it was after I’d already put on his bracelet.) So, I ran to the computer and started typing one up. He screamed the entire time I wrote it! I printed it up and started reading it to him; after the third time through his screaming had turned into sobs. Good Times!
