He put his head on my shoulder as he played his game and he wanted me to ask Alexa for different animals in numerous languages and then he started repeating them. I always wonder how much he comprehends or if he likes the sounds of it. I do know that he has so much stored in his mind and I can’t wait until he shares it all.
He was in such a good mood. He was playful and interactive, telling me all kinds of things without saying the wrong things. He told me exactly what the objects were and then he said, “Thank you for telling me” like I say to him when he is explaining something. I always want him to know his words are important and when he shares them with me it makes me happy.
I cried all morning with the happiest of tears. It was so beautiful to see all the connections he was making and how he interacted with me. I have waited years for these moments and I feel so blessed. When his smile shines there is no better moment and when his heart is filled with joy I know there is another miracle waiting to be seen.
I wore jeans to pick him up and even though he still wants everyone to wear blue pants he was shocked I wasn’t wearing a dress. He handled it beautifully though. His teacher said he had another incredible day at school. I am so thankful that he has handled this transition so well and I can tell how much his teacher and aide work with him already. One more blessing.
We headed to therapy and he talked to me the whole way. He was talking to me about random things and he waited as I answered back. When we got to therapy he sat patiently while I talked to his therapist. Both his therapists said he had a great day and was very interactive with them. He wanted to get a pizza on the way home and drive by the statue and burger boy. I told him since he had such an incredible day that we would do it all.
He had a great night and was incredibly calm. The laughter and song that filled the air made the day complete. I believe in my sweet baby O so very much. I believe in the miracles yet to come. And my faith is strong in what will happen next. The day for me was better than yesterday but my focus was more on the beautiful changes in the most amazing boy I know. There is no greater gift than believing in someone else but always remember to believe in yourself. You are a miracle. Smiles to all and donut daze!
