Parenting a child with special needs is always a challenge and many days there is not much to “celebrate”. Today, I want to share a small yet monumental moment for me! I know many of you will relate and I love to see the smiles and comments when I share some of our small moments.
These last few days, our son has come downstairs WITH his socks and shoes on! Yes, on! For those that are thinking,”yes, and…”, ummm, THIS is big. It is not only 3 extra minutes of valuable bus time, but it is one step closer to him reaching more independence. For those of you that are thinking, that is not happening here, add a “yet”. I did not think it would either . He is NOT tying his shoes, and for the most part, they are the ties from the prior day, but I can work on that.
I am super proud of him and I know some of you will get this too!
Do you have any special moments to share? I would love to know and celebrate with you!
