In honor of Mothers Day and with Jacksons graduation coming up, Im - TopicsExpress



          

In honor of Mothers Day and with Jacksons graduation coming up, Im feeling sentimental and want to tell a story here. When Jackson was four, he had the special privilege of being in Cindy Williams class at the UCA Child Study Center. It was one of the best things that ever happened to him. At the end of the week, all the children who had gotten good behavior points got to draw from a treat jar. Well, as anyone who knew Jackson then will remember, impulse control was that sweet boys special challenge, to put it mildly, so he never got to draw from the treat jar. Then Cindy told me that she realized this policy was leaving certain children out, so she decided to give points for other behavior too, like enthusiasm and creativity, for giving a smart answer and the like. For the rest of my days, I will never forget that Friday when Jackson came romping out to the car beaming. Mommy, Mommy! I finally got to draw from the treat jar! He held out his hand and in his palm was a pink, heart shaped eraser that said, I Love You. He was so proud of himself. This is for you, Mommy! And yes, I still have it. In a very special place.
