Friday Five

Jack cracks me up. His latest antics were to get his shoes, put them on, and declare "vamanos!" Oh, and he gets very annoyed when you don't vamanos when he thinks you and he should.

Dare I hope that this potty training thing might actually happen? I had the goal of working on PTing him during spring break, but we all got sick and it didn't happen. I took him when I thought it would be about time for him to go, but I was definitely not consistent or pushing the matter at all. So when Jack came to get me to take him to the bathroom and actually went potty, I was floored. Go Jack! He's told me several times that he needed to go. They haven't all been productive, so to speak, but it is a HUGE shift in the right direction!

While hanging a picture on the wall for Jason, "Make sure to make it straight. It drives me crazy when things are crooked."

Um...

Shawn's sensitivity toward others is so sweet. He feels it when others are sad or upset. When one of the other boys cries that "hurt" cry, Shawn will cry right along with them. Tonight, Shawn told me he didn't feel well. I gave him some Advil and let him use me as his human pillow for a while until the medicine took affect.
 
"How do you feel, Shawn?" I asked.

"I don't feel good, mommy. How do you feel?"

"I feel sad because you don't feel good." That made him tear up!

"Don't feel sad, mommy!"

Is that not the sweetest? Here he is feeling horrible, and he's worried about me being sad. Makes my heart melt.

Lastly, there is this picture...

End of the school year slurberts! :)
What a great way to start summer vacation!
