L is for Love

So it's been about a month since I updated last. Sigh. Things get so busy around here and the blog is probably last on my (long) list.

So, we are currently in a space I call "cruising" -- where Squish's therapy is set, we have a schedule in place, and he is making progress. These are times of relative calm and peace. However, we are fast approaching the end of the school year which means another change in schedule, another meeting with the school, another set of decisions...all the stuff I don't like about having a child with special needs. The business end of it, if you will. Squish transitions beautifully, and we are thankful for that. It's one of his biggest strengths, actually. Sometimes I'm the one who has a hard time with transitions!

The biggest change in Squish over the last month is the amount of affection he is showing Squish II. He is hugging and kissing his brother, sharing toys (always with the vocalization "SHARE!" as if to warn Squish II that sharing is temporary), and just being more aware of him in general. Squish II is eating it up with a spoon. He is, and has always been, so in love with his big brother.

So, so lovely to see.
