Catching Up
So, the last thing I wrote was about being discouraged with Jack's behavior at school. Since then, we have had our ups and downs but things seem to be improving quickly. By Friday, the teachers were telling me that he was doing much better and he actually stayed all day yesterday! I am SO proud of him! Today might be a different story and they might need me to come for naptime but he is making progress and that is all I can really ask for. He has been a SUPER joy to have around at home lately too. No more running around when he should be eating -- he sits and eats his meals (and eats CONSTANTLY), he puts his shoes in the basket by the door and puts his dirty clothes in the laundry room. He is content to play by himself for hours and doesn't whine and complain nearly as much. Plus, I have SO much more time to myself. As a reward, I have promised him a star present (present wrapped in star paper) every Friday that he is good all week. It "magically" appears in the mailbox for him, lol.
Grandmama visited this past weekend and Jack had lots of fun! As usual, he loved playing in her "hotel-y room" and he was fascinated by the hotel phone. Jack has never really seen a house phone before -- only cell phones -- and the hotel phone freaked him out, haha. I called it and he ran away but we talked him into answering it. He told me the funniest things but the best was when he got tired of talking to me. He would interrupt me or change the subject and say "You have reached 5-0-1-5. Please record your message after the tone. *BEEP*". Then he would hang up, haha!! Sooo funny!
Here are a few after school pics of Jack from last week:
