The way you describe Alex when he was you...Thanks. The way you describe Alex when he was younger sounds a lot like Kai. So, it is nice to hear that he is doing better with his attentiveness. We hope to see that type of progress with Kai.Yujihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17025841543342602157noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4687526100634149438.post-37443638543000129762011-05-11T21:16:19.421-05:002011-05-11T21:16:19.421-05:00My son is forgetful like that, too.

It's good to hear that your son is better about that... gives me hope about my son. <br /><br />The lack of focus is a growing concern for us...<br /><br />Thanks for the encouragement!Yujihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17025841543342602157noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4687526100634149438.post-27300921440139593742011-05-11T10:51:59.835-05:002011-05-11T10:51:59.835-05:00Bravo for you and your son. On most of my son'...Bravo for you and your son. On most of my son's field trips...my wife volunteered in some fashion in order to be able to monitor events. Our main problem was with Alex being so forgetful with items in his possession. He would always lose his jackets or other personal items. <br /><br />He is so much better now...he seems to always be thinking about other things instead of the present. I never really get upset with him for these faults...I was the same at his age.<br /><br />Your son is progressing well also. With our son...he was the most distracted in the winter months. It is far less pronounced now...but before...his teachers used to comment on how he would just have a faraway stare for much of the time from Nov through Jan or so. Anyway..with home schooling...it has almost disappeared. <br /><br />We also used to dread the IEP meetings when the teachers would sometimes give reports of his forgetfulness and inattentiveness. <br /><br />He seems to have conquered so much in the past year. You are also reaping the rewards of your diligence with Kai. It is a wonderful feeling...that I know.Shiroi Torahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05869506932268171410noreply@blogger.com
