Bragging A Bit...

So, for those of you who are parents, I'm sure that you completely understand the the definition and frequency of worrying. Worrying about your child's development, behavior, personality, health, safety...etc.

Being Hayden's mommy has been the best and most rewarding gift I could have ever hoped to recieve. He's smart, he's funny, he's handsome...(I'm partial)...overall, he's absolutely perfect. HOWEVER, I do worry about how others perceive him and how a NON-partial party thinks he's developing, behaving, etc.

While we lived in KS, I had attempted to enroll Hayden in the Parents as Teachers program, but at the time they were full and we weren't able to get in. So, when we moved here, I contacted them immediately and got him signed up right away. Basically, what the program is for is to evaluate your child to see how he/she is progressing in various areas, and then to give us, as parents, suggestions on how to improve, on what we should be watching for, and what we should be expecting. We had our 2nd meeting with our "teacher" today...Miss Shauna...and it went very well. She sat and talked to Hayden quite a bit, was equiped with some fun (homemade) games, and asked Jason and I lots of questions about what Hayden is doing. She said, many times, how advanced his speech and vocabulary are, she said that she could see what a great imagination he has, that his motor skills are advanced, along with knowing his numbers, the letters that he does know, and how advanced his attention span is for his age. We are so proud of our little scholar...and are excited to know, that while I'm sure we tend to see mostly the positives, it's not going unnoticed by others either!!!
