For each of your children tell us an accomplishment that each has reached?

Because I have handicap kids, one thing that we do in special support groups or meetings is to try and focus on good things that the kids are doing. I love doing this because its so special to sit and think and then share what our children are doing. And it doesn't have to be anything huge or major, just anything that you are happy for them about.

Austin gave his life to the Lord recently!

Oh Amanda, that is so awesome!! I love reading that!!

Ryan has acknowledge the calling on his life, God has called him to be a youth Pastor.

Beckah has become the most loving and giving person. She loves to cook and is really excelling far beyond me. I believe that she wants to go to culinary arts school when she graduates.

Robbie has conquered money, for the longest time he could only handle dollars, now he can count coins too. Its a huge life skill for a special needs person. He also is continuing to excel at his reading.

Raelynn has done so well with school and reading this year. She is more independent and secure, needing less reassurance from me. She has also learned to be an individual instead of being just like her friends.

Daniel is amazing, with his vision impairment he is learning to read, which we didn't think he would be able to do. He does extremely well with his learning and doesn't let his blindness get in the way. Oh and lately I have overheard him singing christian songs while he does independent play.

Sierra's teachers are FINALLY starting to have some positive feedback for me. She's always had decent grades, but I am constantly told that she talks to much, that she is too unorganized, that she has no study skills. Well, now their comments are more along the lines of: "She did great on her test last week." "She is so much more organized now!" and "Keep doing what you are doing. It's working. She's doing much better!"

Will is doing great in school and amazing in sports. He is also thriving in church as well. He has recently quit attending children's church because he would rather stay in the main service with me. He takes really in depth notes during the service, and then studies those during the week.

Wow amazing accomplishments!

I guess, with Dakota being only three, her's is writing. She writes her name more consistently now and can write most letters of the alphabet. She's also very interested in words and is constantly asking 'what does that say?'

I only WISH Austin would do the same!

Speaking - a year ago he wasn't saying more than a handful of words - now he talks in complete sentences.

Last night AJ stayed dry - he won't up with planets still on his pull up! And then promptly went tinkle in the potty. That was the last time - he has been sick, so I am not forcing it until he feels better.

My D still wears nappies at night Christina. She was actually dry when she stopped breastfeeding in June - but when she started Pre-school in September started wetting again. Now its 50-50 so I keep a 'bedtime' nappy on her anyways rather than wake with wet sheets (esp as we co-sleep!). I'm not really bothered. She was day-dry pretty early and I don't see how you can train them at night when they're not conscious of it.
My sis said her son was wetting upto like age 10!
