Today has been a good day. Nothing too out of the ordinary has happened. Rylie went to her soccer game in 90 degree weather (yuck), and I had some time alone with Brandon while Levi took a nap. I read him a story and held him on my lap while he watched the end of 'Up'. he was happy to let me rub his back and he didn't even throw a fit when I turned off the TV (which is huge). I live for days like today. The whole mood of the house is different when Brandon has a good day. My nerves are relaxed and I can take things on like organizing the tupperware cupboard. :-)
I realized later that 2 things have happened over the past few months that I thought never would. One, Brandon can swim. My nightmares about him drowning are gone (they're now about Levi- sheesh). He loves the water so much, and now that he is water-safe I can breathe so much easier, especially since he can open the gate to the pool at Mamaw's house. Two, he poops on the potty. He is completely potty trained. I truly NEVER thought this would happen. We keep him in a pull-up at home, just in case, but he doesn't really need it! It was night an day too. One day he didn't, the next he did. I don't know what clicked for him, but I don't care! I am thrilled!
There you have it. My two Brandon miracles. Miracles!
Today is a good day.
