    today is better still. He's such a little ray of sunshine. Today he's sick with the "pukeypoops" and is laying here on the floor all bundled up. A little bit ago he said, "Mom I like to look up now and then and see your beautiful face." chuckle. Then he fell back to sleep.

    How can I feel disheartened with him? He is his own source of hope. He believes in himself even with all the frustration. "I know the answers Mom. It doesn't matter if no one else knows I know or not"

    Well, yeah it does matter, but I'm glad he's got the bit of confidence in himself.

    Aww, he is just so sweet. He's really an amazing kid (as you already know).

    WillaGayle, for some reason I was thinking of you this morning as I drove my daughter to school. It occurred to me that since we on this forum know your sons as "Mite" and "Rite" that you should have a suitable name to match--one which reflects what you do so much of with Mite's school--and that name would be..."Fite"!

    Don't know why that thought popped into my head, but I made myself laugh. :-)

    chuckle. Fite it is. Gosh! A year ago I thought all I had to do was keep a pleasant rapport with the teacher. Now I'm "Warrior Momma"!!

    Thanks for the compliments re: my Mite. He's a funny little guy and oh too big, too. Right now, having "recovered" from this morning "pukeypoops", he's annoying the heck out of Rite.

    "Moooooooooooooooommmmmmm! Get the little monster outta here....."

    bye gotta extract said monster....

    Glad you like it. :-) Now we just need a matching name for your DH and you'll be the "ite" family.
