Caleb and Change
Today we had a meeting with our service coordinator through the CDSA (where Caleb receives his therapies) to review Caleb’s goals from 6 months ago and create new goals for the next 6 months. We were completely amazed at all of the progress he has made! Developmentally, he is doing so many more things then he was 6 months ago and our coordinator was really impressed with the progress he has made. Its difficult for us as his parents to see the progress he has made since we are with him everyday, but having other people notice is a big deal to us! Still no speech yet, but i know he is very close. I think we are going to have a party the day he says his first word…LOL. Seeing the improvements he has made really makes the busyness of every week so worth it. We literally have a therapy session of some kind almost everyday during the week. But it is absolutely the best thing for him right now. Through this process I have learned so much about children and about Caleb. That little boy amazes me 
And even though there are days that I want to pull my hair out and scream I remember that God is in control and I need to just take a deep breath and give it all to Him.
This summer should be really busy for Caleb. He is starting at a preschool for a summer session in June and then a different preschool summer session in July. I am really excited for him to go because I know he will have a lot of fun, but I am also pretty nervous because I will be leaving him there for about 3 hours 2-3 days a week. The extra time to myself will be nice but the relinquishing of control will be very difficult. I know the people that run the preschools though and know he will be in great hands, but as a first time momma letting go of her baby boy will be difficult. But I know this is a part of life and one day he will grow up and leave home (thats the plan at least!), so I need to start embracing the change.
Any advice from you mom’s out there?
