Read a Book

A few days ago I replaced the charging cords on Alex’s Kindles. Since then he has not touched either one. I disrupted his routine and now the routine seems to be gone. He doesn’t really know what to do with himself so he’s been wandering the house more. That is probably better for him than sitting with a Kindle anyway. But it has also left him dysregulated and so he’s been acting out his elevation too vigorously. He’s shaking the whole house. I am working on reducing his stress. We stood looking into each other’s eyes for about five minutes. Then I gave him a hug and said he should read a book. I went and got him his parallel Quran, but he put it back. Then he came back into my room and claimed the two half finished books on my dresser. I guess those are his now.
