Love is kind, love is patient, love is not rude. Zaid is picking up on this. He makes me smile every day to see him, to see live through a wee one's perspective, when someone at the park ignored him, he just kept on trying to talk to them, he even followed said people around, I was sad for him, but I knew that he had to figure it out for himself, that we will encounter many rude people in life, but that we can not be rude in return, because love is not rude. I am using "I" statements, I want you to pick that up, etc. It is working for him. Independence is want he craves now, so whenever he can have it, I let him go for it. He washes his own hands, dresses himself, sets the table, pours the juice, cleans up when he has an accident, ("Accidents happen" is what he says.)
The park is one of our favorite places now, in the spring, we can stay there for hours and we do many times. He played with some older girls (12-13ish) for over two hours on Sunday, they got a kick out of him and he told them all about Jacob, Jacob Jr. and Jaxom.
