The school year has started out fast and furious!
For the past 3 weeks, I have had the opportunity to sub as an aide in the special ed department at the boys' school. It has been a great learning experience, but it has also been a bit overwhelming working everyday and still being a mom and housewife. Also I have always had great admiration for the teachers and aides at school, but now I have even more admiration after watching all the work that goes into teaching our kids. Our school is blessed with an incredible staff who really cares about their students!
One weekend in September, I did an intense 2 day toilet training with Jonah. I let him go naked which is why the floor is covered in a tarp. He had some great successes with telling me he had to go, but also he had some accidents where he didn't even notice he was going. But I think everything we try with Jonah is helping in a small way to get him completely trained. We are at a point now where he goes almost all the time on demand with some wetting in between. At least we are moving in the right direction.
We got to visit Abigail this weekend up in MN because Stephen had a cross country meet up there. The boys were so excited to see their "Bubba"- their name for Abigail. This was a photo we texted to Abigail to let her know we were on our way there.
The boys are very good little travelers. They like watching movies. They also did amazing at the cross country meet considering it was 90 degrees and humid!
Here is a really sweet video and Ben and Abigail.
