(Not that he tried to hide it!) \u00a0It didn&#8217;t take long for his grades to suffer from his lack of engagement.<\/p>\n<p>We tried band. But since it was not possible to get the highly coveted percussion assignment, he was forced to choose something else: the trumpet. He tried and tried, but he quickly began to resent that instrument and found every opportunity to avoid it. Since we had to rent it for $25 bucks a month, I was not too happy to see it unplayed so often. \u00a0We tried private tutoring sessions to help boost his confidence, but it just didn&#8217;t matter. \u00a0He genuinely disliked the instrument and music all together. \u00a0The band teacher found a way for him to be transitioned out of that year long class despite the general rules of leaving kids assigned to their original schedules. \u00a0We were grateful for the end of Ben&#8217;s musical misery and I was happy to get my $25.00 a month back.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright size-medium wp-image-10855\" src=\"https:\/\/gregandjennifer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/Honor_Roll-300x255.jpg\" alt=\"Honor_Roll\" width=\"300\" height=\"255\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gregandjennifer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/Honor_Roll-300x255.jpg 300w, https:\/\/gregandjennifer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/Honor_Roll-600x510.jpg 600w, https:\/\/gregandjennifer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/Honor_Roll-768x653.jpg 768w, https:\/\/gregandjennifer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/Honor_Roll-1150x978.jpg 1150w, https:\/\/gregandjennifer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/Honor_Roll-1024x871.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/gregandjennifer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/Honor_Roll.jpg 1977w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/>Eventually, he was allowed to participate in Drama, which showed him that school can occasionally encourage playful and silly behavior without being considered disruptive. \u00a0Slowly, he started to feel like a happy kid again. His grades were finally leaving the C and D zone and he was consistently getting more B&#8217;s. \u00a0By the end of the quarter, he was rewarded with an Honor Roll certificate for his efforts at trying to improve in all his classes.<\/p>\n<p>But the real prize of a class was (the super popular and tough to get into) Consumer &amp; Family Studies, aka the cooking class. \u00a0There are never openings in that class. \u00a0Students have to be very fast to sign up for it before it gets full. \u00a0Because Ben has several teachers who care for his success, strings were pulled in all the right ways and Ben was allowed in. \u00a0To me, it was an answer to prayer. Ben needed to know that it was possible to have a few positive experiences in his school.<\/p>\n<p>To our surprise, Ben not only enjoys the cooking class, he is thriving in it. \u00a0He is loving the chance to explore new recipes and getting his hands dirty in the cooking process. \u00a0This warms my heart so much because Ben has such a beautiful and unique soul. \u00a0It hurt so much to see him so sad every day after school. \u00a0You see, Ben has high functioning autism and he relates to the world around him in a very unique way. \u00a0 To date, he has largely felt disconnected from his experience in public middle school. \u00a0But cooking has made him connect.<\/p>\n<p>His recent cooking assignment was to tackle the German oven pancake. \u00a0The teacher demonstrated it first and the next day the kids would get the chance to make it themselves. \u00a0Ben was so enthusiastic after seeing the demonstration that he couldn&#8217;t wait for the next day to try making it. \u00a0But since he was given the recipe, he thought, &#8220;Why wait for tomorrow? \u00a0Why not try making it as soon as I get home?&#8221; \u00a0Ben has never baked like this before. \u00a0He is quite adept at using the stove top, and even heating up foods in the oven, but never preparing something so raw from scratch. \u00a0I was quite happy to let him experiment and just figure it out.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright size-medium wp-image-10852\" src=\"https:\/\/gregandjennifer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/Ben_pancake-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"Ben_pancake\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gregandjennifer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/Ben_pancake-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/gregandjennifer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/Ben_pancake-600x450.jpg 600w, https:\/\/gregandjennifer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/Ben_pancake-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/gregandjennifer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/Ben_pancake-1150x863.jpg 1150w, https:\/\/gregandjennifer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/Ben_pancake-1024x768.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/>His first attempt came out very flat, much like a traditional pancake. \u00a0But we ate it and congratulated him for his accomplishment. \u00a0Secretly, he knew something was not right. It just didn&#8217;t look like the one the teacher made in class earlier that day. \u00a0He would later learn that he didn&#8217;t whisk the eggs enough and after having the opportunity to make it correctly at school the following day, he was ready to dazzle us at home. \u00a0And dazzle he did!<\/p>\n<p>We all laughed with delight when he opened the oven door to reveal the new and improved German oven pancake in it&#8217;s risen glory. \u00a0How appropriate for the Easter season of which we are still spiritually celebrating.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-medium wp-image-10851\" src=\"https:\/\/gregandjennifer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/pancake-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"pancake\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gregandjennifer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/pancake-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/gregandjennifer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/pancake-600x450.jpg 600w, https:\/\/gregandjennifer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/pancake-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/gregandjennifer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/pancake-1150x863.jpg 1150w, https:\/\/gregandjennifer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/pancake-1024x768.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Ben was happy.
