Merry Christmas

I want to wish everyone a Merry Christmas. Hope everyone has had a great day, I know we did.

Santa brought Josh a kid size guitar, b/c he absolutely loves any kind of music/instrument. He has already shown an aptitude to music (so our choir director friend has said). Anyway back to the guitar, he is totally nuts over it. It has even trumped Mickey Mouse clubhouse (huge). Mitch has been calling him a little Bob Dylan all day, b/c it has not touched the ground. He is as we speak taking a nap with it in the bed.

Big new happened with Josh on Saturday!!!!!!!!! (Time for a little background for those who do not know us ------- Josh was a micro preemie (1.5 lbs @ birth) ... developmental delays...r/o autism...blah blah blah) We went to a friends house for dinner and they have a 3 y/o also. She absolutely loves Josh. OK here is the big news. He actively played with her. Was initiating play. He had a look to total happiness on his face. It was like a light bulb went off and he realized wow there are other people in the room who want to play with me. We were so happy to see this. One of his problems much of the time, I think, is that he is painfully shy. It takes him a long time to warm up. As I said he has known this little girl for almost two years and it still took an hour for him to warm up and them to start playing. Enough about that. Just want to brag on our little man.
