Abe Sandwich

Abe woke up in the middle of the night.  He peed the bed, first time since he has been sleeping without a pull-up over the last 1 month.  He was mortified.  I was half awake and yelling, horrified by my behavior this morning.  I was angry because he wouldn't stop saying he was hungry and the reality was that he was trying to shift my focus from changing his sheets to his stomach.  The reality was, he wasn't hungry and I was too tired to realize he needed me to be compassionate in that moment.  Serious parent fail.   

This morning he woke his happy self and much later than usual (7:30 am).  I know his brain is going through some serious changes.  He's sleeping more deeply and he's relaxing more as well.  Maybe I could take a lesson and relax a bit as well?

The weather is changing and I think it is a good thing.  We found out today that Abe will be in the classroom we had hoped for.  Mellissa D-A is the BEST teacher and she gets Abe.  He has so much affection for her and she visits our home to make sure we are on track to make sure this kid does the great things he is destined to do.  Lately, it's been physics.  He is fascinated by the constructs of the universe and likes to know how black holes, white giants, etc. are made and how they perpetuate the galexies and constellations that make of the wide universe.  I don't even get it.
