GREAT NEWS!!!

by mathrice, Oct 04, 2007 03:42PM
I am so proud...you would think it was MY son who came home with all his "sticks" in tact today!  OH MY GOODNESS!  He got out of Daddy's car with a huge grin and a rocket ship toy as a REWARD!  This is the first time since school started, that my nephew kept every stick out of 5 all day long and I feel like I need to partayyyyyyyyyy!  (Keep in mind, we had to beg the admin at school to say SOMETHING positive about each day for a week now...they finally did!)

Let me elaborate just a bit...
After my initial post...I got tougher.  Then my nephew got sevier asthma attacks (dry, autumn weather, etc...), and had to use the nebulizer, inhaler, pred-zoner (my word, not the med's, lol)...and I realized he was feeding on the illness.  I (like I posted before) put my foot down with the copping out on the asthma and he came out of it with GLORY!  (knocking wood here, hehe).  He ROCKS!
He's going to the "demo-derby" @ the fair for a big celebration tonight!  WOOOHOOO!!!

OMG...party not over yet...and I'm suffering the same asthma / allergy thingy he has been (we just moved from sunny, humid Florida, and I'm not used to the draught in Autumn, which is a season I've not seen in over 5 years)...so I'm pooped.  It's 9:30 here (school night, YIKES), and I give up.  His Mama will fill me in, I'm sure, but...what a milestone.  I believe the hand of the Lord touched him last night (he woke up with a smile this morning and did everything he was asked with little or no effort at all), and / or the new medicine is making him feel so much better that maybe, just maybe, ADHD will be an afterthought and buried in the backyard with the asthma (I had no clue it was so serious until the past couple of days).

All "partayyyyyed" out for now...

Auntie "sighs" out...

"Mama" called before I got to bed last night...telling me, "Stay up!  (Nephew) has a suprise for you!"...Okay...I stayed up and he came home with her at about 10:15 with a stuffed dolphin (bigger than the last one) for me!  He wanted to win something for "Auntie" and he did...and couldn't wait to give it to me!  
Anyway...something has "clicked" for sure, because he woke up again this morning, with a smile and excited to go back to school!  (Knocking wood again!)
