Just one more minute

Nap time seems to be a thing of the past. Sorry Pepere :(. It seems like we are now at the point where he will take a sporadic one here or there, but for the most part, they are a thing of the past. This means that we have pushed his bedtime back down to 8. So far so good. However, a couple of times a week, when he has had a really busy day like Monday, he will fall asleep on me while we are doing our rock and read. Every night we sit in the rocking chair and read 2 books of his choice. When the 2 books are done, he knows it's bedtime. This has always been our special, quiet daily bonding time. I LOVE this time. Last night was one of those nights that he fell asleep while reading. I know that someday, this time together will end. I had to hold him just one more minute and make sure I thanked God for my most wonderful gift. I don't know how I ever existed without him. I still get tears in my everyday when I watch him.

He had PT yesterday morning and is progressing wonderfully. I can't wait for the day when he has graduated from all of his services. He has come so far!

We also had Karate last night. Just me and him. We got there early and I need to say... it went GREAT! There were a couple of kids there and some bigger kids. He earned another tiny tiger patch because he always brings so much energy to class and is so good at following instruction. I am so very proud of him.
