Jan 2011

January went bye so fast! Not sure where to start. Jackson went back to the eye doctor. His left eye is slowly gaining back eye strength. We are still doing the atropine eye drops. It is so hard to patch a 4 year old. Karson went back to the neurologist, and she confirmed what we had suspected for the past 3 years. My sweet Karson, so gentle, and shy. He is my snuggle bear. But we found out he has Aspergars. Which is type of Autism. But we are one of the lucky ones, where Karson may grow out of this with the right type of therapy and social groups. While some may not see anything wrong with Karson. I, as his mother, knows something isn't right. But I know he will grow into a beautiful christian man. Just remember if you see a kid with a temper tantrum, it doesn't mean that kid is a wild child, or not discipline. That child may have a medical problem. We are going on 2 years seizure free. We couldn't be more thrill with this. Both boys are still excelling in school. Best decision we ever made with the boys was putting them into pre-school. Jackson is learning syllables, and how to read. Karson is learning the pledge of allegiance. Karson knows how to operate a computer like an adult. Jackson is hooked on the speed channel. The child wakes up and turns off my alarm clock. He gets dress and turns on the speed channel. Yes, I know he is Darrel's son. We are learning, that even though we are not speaking to the boys directly, they are still listening to our conversations.

Jackson informed last week, that a lil girl in his class said he was mean. Jackson was very upset over this. Per Jackson "I am not mean at school, mommy!! I am only mean at home." Thank You Jackson!! I am glad you are nice at school. The boys join the music makers at church and they are both enjoying it very much. They are both doing great in cubbies and remembering their bible verses every week. Once a week we have game night. I am learning that all three of my boys are very competitive. Trying to teach them that it is okay to lose, and winning doesn't include a win dance every time(Karson James) The boys also started Skating this month. Maw Maw and Paw Paw Jackson took the boys twice skating, and they are having a blast learning how to do it. Hopefully one day, I may be able to join them. I am so proud of what my babies have become, still can't believe in a couple weeks they will be 5. I am sure the next post will be very sappy!!
