today e said "cole" for the first time.
it really sounded like "COE" in a southern accent. he said it all day, he was so proud. for some reason he has been shy about talking. i know he can do it but he just hesitates. i was really happy. both ko and i clapped, and shouted YEAH!!!!! we were in the car driving home from the gym.
lately he has also taken a great interest in singing. we sing at night and in the car and yes, at church. he just pretends he knows the words and sings the whole song. at church he opens the hymn book and sits very still with a very large smile on his face singing along with the congregation.
i am so proud of my boys, it takes very little for them to impress me.....
ko also willingly ate an apple, (if you know anything about my boys is that they are the world's pickiest eaters that i am trying to reform)....... without a bribe, on his own just to show e that he was eating it too and that it was good.....even though he really hates them and as soon as e started eating it, he didn't have another bite.
it made me get the "warm fuzzies" inside and got the motivation to move onto the next healthy item on the list........corn.
i think we've come a long way from "you eat it or DIE!"
okay, just kidding, it's actually, eat it or sit in a time out and starve until you do.....but it sounds more mafia the other way don't you think?
every job needs a little drama.
