One day at a time

Goofy Brothers!
 Zack continues to show that he is learning new concepts. While he will not talk at school he continues to talk up a storm at home. We are currently trying to find a pediatric psychologist to see him as we are suspecting he may have Selective Mutism. He is a happy guy who loves puzzles, playing Wii, coloring, looking at books, and listening and dancing to music! We are concerned how he will adapt to a new school next month when we move. He seems excited and does understand we are moving to a new house. However, I am pretty sure the new school will be a tough adjustment for him. I pray that God has put us in the right place at the right time and He will guide Zack to where he needs to be. This move is a blessing even though the main downfall is moving further away from my family. Kevin will get to be closer to work and thus will get to be at home more often and spend more fun time with our boys. We are very blessed to have everything we do. We pray daily for Zack's seizures to remain controlled without medication and pray for his (and Tommy's) development and growth. There are many times when I feel saddened when Zack has a difficult time either academically or socially. I feel angry that things are not and will not be easy for him. Then I remember that while as a mom it is natural to worry about your children, only God knows what the future will bring. Whether he goes on to be class valedictorian or not means nothing. We are taking each day as it comes. We watch him struggle to write, yet he is trying so hard! He writes his name and is reading a little. He is learning basic math skills. More than anything he is an awesome big brother and a wonderful son. We are so blessed we were chosen to be his mom and dad! My life is amazingly simple....just the way I want it to be!
