I was recounting for Brother’s speech therapist something that happened this weekend that astonished me.  It brought tears to my eyes. 

Let me start at the beginning.  Whenever I or someone else would fall, Brother would laugh.  He thinks it’s very funny.  It never occurs to him that I could be hurt.  I once took quite a spill on my ceramic tiled kitchen floor.  My hip and leg hurt for days!

Yesterday, as I was eating lunch, I heard a crash.  I waited to hear crying from whomever was hurt.  Instead, I heard Brother asking, "Honey, are you okay?"

If you only knew what a milestone this is.  It’s huge.  Even my speech therapist was teary eyed.

    I know exactly what kind of milestone this is – God bless him and you, he wouldn’t have come this far without such a wonderful mom.
