I think my kids are pretty wonderful...I know, I know... what parent doesn't (well most of the time!). But don't we all have days, moments when we are smacked in the face with it..(the wonderful stuff that is!)?
Cole is this amazing computer wiz.. I mean AMAZING!! He tells me things (like I know what he's talking about. NOT) and 90% of the time I just nod my head, smile and say "cool"... His knowledge is WAAAAAy over my head.
But this is his passion and I must foster it (even if I feel like he is speaking another language!) And I know he will do great thing with it!
And Drew, Drew seems to be blooming into a wonderful artist. He has always admired art. Picasso and Van Gogh being his favorite. Lately he has been drawing, coloring, painting... his attention to details are incredible ....
I had one of those "smack ya in the face" kinda wonderful moments this morning. Drew crawled into my bed. Curled up next to me, rubbed my back, played with my hair, wrapped his arms around me.... I remember a time way back when Drew was first diagnosed with autism...I never knew if he would feel "typical" connections to people...I am THRILLED he does! Cole came in next... 2 kids, 2 dogs and ME. Cole is and has always been a snuggler...So here I lay, both my boys, one on either side of me, enjoying a wonderful morning (while being smacked in the face with their wonderfulness!)... And Drew begins to sing... "I see trees of green..red roses too..I see em bloom..for me and for you...And I think to myself..what a wonderful world..."
You said it Drew... WHAT A WONDERFUL WORLD :-)
