Darn I am cute............ or so I keep being told

Soooo, Jason and his glasses are getting to be friends. He wears them more and more, today we had success in the car, at a play date, at lunch, at the grocery store and at home. We are on day 3 of glasses and yippee he seems to be wearing them about 80% of the time! Mommy decided we needed to show the guy that first put the glasses on Jason what a big boy he was and we went in to see him. Glenn the glasses guy, adjusted Jason's glasses and Jason even helped put them back on!
Jason also ventured out with his mommy to a play date today with 6 other kids from infant to toddler to beyond preschool. Jason is not the best "sharer" in the world but he is getting better! Where we went was great, nice safe play room in someones house with every toy known to man and the best thing of all, HORSES! I have not seen Jason light up like that in a LONG LONG time! He kept squealing Dooogies, no honey not doggies, horsie! But he was squirming in my arms, and reaching out to them. It was suggested that we look into therapy sessions with horses, it really helps little people with some sensory issues and developmental delays. I had heard that in the past but I was a) in denial that my son had "issues" and developmental delays ( yes his mommy is a little nutty at times) and b) thought it may be to much for him at such a young age, ( mommy fear he may get hurt, got to burst the bubble he lives in sometime!) so we are going to look into it! I mean he was excited to see the horses run and play!
Now my wonder boy is sleeping off all the afternoon excitement. While mommy blogs and does other around the house things.
Slowly we as a family are starting to come around and understand just what Sensory Processing Disorder is, how to deal with it and understand it is OK for us to say we have a "special" child. Every child is special, every person has special qualities but not every child is as special as ours is. So if one day you see us in a restaurant, and our wonder boy is screaming a blood curdling scream while clinching his fists and turning red, please know it is not bad parenting, or lack of discipline, it is "special needs" showing through. We are working hard on the screams, the fist pumping, and the frustration Jason is having. We are getting better at making him watch us and watch the simple sign language we are using to help Jason communicate. So if you see us, hey. stop by, say hi, tell Jason how cute he is in his glasses, he can never seem to get enough flirting or attention and know that as parents we are doing the best that we can. We need the love, we need the support and we know the screams are loud! TRUST US! We are a lot closer to them then you are when they go off! Any suggestions are taken and applied if we can!
Thank you for continuing to read about Jason and his cuteness, his challenges he is facing and letting his parents get their hurt, confusion and frustrations out via this blog! It really does help the one who is behind the keyboard which for the most part is his Mommy but Daddy helps too!
Happy weekend to you all and remember once again you may hear a screaming child no matter where you are, the parents for the most part are more frustrated and mortified with the screams then you are or you think they are, if they are decent parents at all!
