Happy Halloween! James "McCartney" was wearing his mustache on his sleeve by the time we got to school for a parade and party time! Tonight we are running away to the beach for trick-or-treating tonight and a major parade tomorrow. Dad too. After a week of work and doctor visits, he deserves an extra day off. On the other hand, James and I have had a PHENOMENAL week. After a month of sad-sack posts, I am overjoyed to be writing that word. James had a two-hour psycho-social evaluation on Wednesday. He was an angel! Sat patiently. Indicated when he wet his pull-up by saying "pee-pee" and it was true! It wasn't avoidance. We went to the potty and returned without fuss. He took out a snack, read some of his books. When he got antsy, he sat on my lap! Who is this patient kid? James is also talking up a storm, to himself, to us, and to his speech therapist. Even making a few words, correctly, for her (yellow, blue, white, green, pink, milk) and even a sentence: "play ball!" Of course the session ended a few minutes early when James became terrified by another child who was having a serious meltdown. My sensitive sweetie is hyper empathetic. No matter, we have an entire weekend ahead to encourage his speech. Two days with both my guys. I can't wait!
