Making HUGE strides!!!


I am sooooooooooo proud of this boy!!! I love him so much. He has been making so much progress in every aspect. He has been socializing so much more and is doing awesome at not secluding himself from people and doing things. He used to play the computer and work in his math workbook constantly. I would always ask him to play with me and he would almost always say, "no thank you". Now he plays outside with Addie quite a bit and will play games with me or do projects with me after school. He has ALWAYS had a hard time with babies or little kids because he knows that they get into his things and they won't be in order anymore. So Mckay and Mia, his cousins, have always caused a lot of "meltdowns" when they are around, but now he and Mckay are becoming little buddies, and he tolerates Mia SO WELL!!!! At the beginning of the school year he would seclude himself from the other kids at recess, but his teacher has been telling me that he has been playing every recess. He has been doing so well with sensory issues as well. He doesn't get freaked out every time there is a loud noise or bright light as he used to! We still have a lot to work on and we wouldn't change him for THE WORLD!! He has been the biggest blessing in our family and has taught us so much. I think that families that have kids with special needs are so blessed and I know he was sent to Kevin and I to teach us and help us. We are the most BLESSED parents in the world!! Addie is so paitent with the things we have to cater to him for. She sometimes gets the raw end of the deal because of his needs, but for the most part is so paitent with him. They are AMAZING!! We couldn't ask for better kids!! They are the BEST!!!! We are so proud of you Koleman and big sister Addie!!!
