Gorgeous Head

A bizarre term of endearment from his mother.  I have no idea why or when I started to call him this.  Poor kid responds too.  He knows he's gorgeous.  This week is our Spring Break, so of course, we head to the beach and it's cold and rainy.  No matter, we are there.  James is in love with the ocean.  He likes the bay too, but the tide and the crashing surf, blow his mind.  So far, we have seen good and bad developments.  The constipation thing is not as bad and suppositories are not needed BUT he is still far from regular. It's funny, although "things" are not happening on a daily basis (yet) there are no nightmares or middle of the night screams. Perhaps we misread and the screaming episodes are school related?  He also has no trouble going to bed and has been out by roughly 8:30 every night.  Is it connected?  No nightmares and James WANTS to go to sleep?   His speech had slipped some too.  It was sad.  He wasn't even trying and we were hearing only Bs and Ps. But this morning, after we dropped Dad at the bus stop, James started trying again.  On his own.  Wanted spray candy, handed it to me "PAY!" and then later "MAW PAY." Then "BamBA" for Grandpa.  Perhaps his speech was on holiday too?  I have to hound him but not today.  James is with Grandma and Pa for the evening (God Bless Them) and Mom and Dad are going on a date!
