You take the good, you take the bad

Good: 
Today: at 6 a.m., B pounced up our stairs and hopped in bed with us saying "show" amongst a LOT of other babble. I wish it had been later in the day, but it was super cute anyway. This too is progress. The old B would've kept himself busy on his own for at least a while before seeking us out.

I was gone for the 2nd of B's sessions this afternoon (the first one was with me so I welcomed a break). He has a receptive program where we show pictures of people (family & therapists) and when we say their name, he has to choose the right one. Apparently whenever my picture was present, he would pick it up and say Mama. It was distracting enough that they had leave me out of the options. I like that.

Bad:
I'm a little concerned that his bolting behavior may be back. He ran ahead of us when we picked big bro. up at school and did not stop when I called his name, yelled stop or any of the other things I yelled to him. He got ahead enough that he was out of my eye sight. Then in the parking lot, he freed his hand from mine and took off. Um, scary. This was a problem we had in parks before but once he started wanting to hold my hand, it went away. I hope today was a one-time event.
