Breakthroughs

For the first time E-V-E-R, WINK asked three classmates to play on the recess yard. AND THEY SAID 'YES"!!!  This is huge progress for him.

I told WINK to find his shoes so he could help me get him ready in the morning.  I was busy doing other things when WINK yelled "I found them, Mommy." I continued doing what I was doing, looked over several minutes later, and was stunned that my shoeless WINK was watching TV.
{Sigh}...Serves me right: I told him to find them but not to put them on. 

SMILE is improving every day.   His little face is extremely expressive when he genuinely feels an emotion. He beams when he is happy and breaks hearts when he's sad. But when he is asked to make a certain face, he often looks maniacal. But now he can  imitate facial expressions that almost resemble the intended emotion. I secretly love his goofy, screwed up faces though.
