Street meeting

I was late setting off to work this morning and halfway to the bus stop I spotted younger son coming down the street with his class teacher. Last time this happened he completely freaked. Autists find it difficult to cope when things or people are out of place and he normally doesn't see me during school hours. My first reaction was to hide but it too late for that. But he didn't freak. He just smiled, said "What are you doing mummy?" and carried on his way. Now I feel all proud.
