I have finally gotten around to doing some major research into where we are going to put Colin when we return to Ohio. Unfortunatley, Ohio is behind the times compared to Minnesota when it comes to Autism. They do have a bill in the House right now making health insurance companies pay for autistic services and therapies. I just hope to God it passes!
I did find a school for him and have set up an appointment to go and tour the facility. To put him full time M-F 8-3pm it is $40,000 a year. Now, Ohio does offer an Autism Scholarship that will cover $20,000. But that leaves Todd and I to come up with the other $20,000. Since that is practically what I make in a year, I am going to have to work two jobs just to pay for it. It breaks down to $2000 a month. INSANE! I told myself that is only for a year before he goes to preschool. We can do this!
Now I just have to find a daycare for Morgan that won't break the bank too much!
What we do for our kids! :-)

When are you moving? Will you be living in Troy? Where will you be working...let me know, I can give you a couple names that might not be too expensive!
