Catching Up

Isaac is doing well in school and finally catching up in his developmental delays enough that he is transitioning to a regular 1st grade class for half a day now and back to the Special Ed class in the afternoons. He will probably be in a regular class all day very soon. He is very smart and reads better than any first grader I have ever met. Isaac is reading Chapter books such as "Diary of a Wimpy Kid" and loves it. Isaac will still need a little help with his social interaction skills, but not much more than that. Isaac, much like other heart kids, spent a lot of time in a position where he couldn't do much physically for so long, he learned from everything going on around him. It is amazing to watch how his brain works, I like to pretend with him that I steal his brain through his ear so that I can be smart like him and he loves to yell at me to spit it out. Isaac is such a character, and so much fun to tease in a fun way, I am thankful I have this time with him to play. I feel bad that some of my heart friends had such a short time with their loved ones to play like I have been able to enjoy. I guess each one of us has a different mission in life and we all will get a chance to be with our loved ones again someday. I am so thankful for Heavenly Father's Plan for us & the chance to be with our loved ones again & for the sacrifice that Jesus made for us all especially at this Easter season as well as throughout the year.
