Hug Twice

As I said yesterday, when CJ started full-time school, I had a lot of mixed feelings.  And guilt.  And a feeling of powerlessness because I didn’t have the skills necessary to help him grow and develop and thrive from a speech perspective.  But sometimes, I’m reminded that it’s all worth it.

A few days ago, CJ came up to me, very seriously, and said “Mommy?  I tell you.”

I replied, “You tell me what?”

And he said very sincerely “Mommy, I really love school.”

And honestly, my heart melted.

Not only can he put together much more complex sentences than he could just a few months ago, he’s expressing more abstract thoughts related to past experiences, and not just the here and now.  And he is doing something he loves.

Life is good.
