Dylan graduated high school. We are so proud of him. He has been in school since he was 3 years old. He loved riding the bus to and from school! He was lucky his freshman year of high school because Ashleigh was a senior and they attended the same school. Over the years, Dylan attended several schools (and one of them schools was where Banessa and I taught) , had several teachers and teacher assistants, and gained many friends. His last two years he attended a special class learning life skills, going places in the community - grocery stores, retail stores, restaurants, library, gym volunteering (Helping Hands, a Senior Center) , learning job skills, cooking, cleaning, and managing time.
His last ride to work (which was a celebration day instead).
His last senior walk through the hallways of his school. The seniors had a dress rehearsals for graduation and before they walked the hallways of the high 
Graduation - Banessa and Thomas came celebrate too. She took a picture of every step he took on the stage. He proudly walked in with a tall stature. He kept looking around for us and finally spotted us. We actually sat directly across from him. He knew all the steps and celebrated. He even threw his cap! We love this guy so much. Now he will train over the next couple months at a local vocational center. I want to keep him involved - working after training for about 10-12 hours each week, volunteering, going to the gym and library, active activities and helping out at home with meals and household responsibilities of cleaning and such.
