Brandon got ready by himself!

Brandon is now in second grade. One would think that this being his third year of school, not counting preschool, he would know what he needs to do to get ready for school. Nope. Every morning I put his clothes out and tell him to put them on, tell him to take his meds, brush his teeth, socks and shoes, put his folder in his backpack. Every morning I try to get him to do what's next. It never sinks in. That was until this morning. This morning I woke him up and went to check my email. I came out and he was dressed, with shoes, in the bathroom brushing his teeth. He even took his meds and had his back pack ready! Two weeks ago he served his own dinner. He can fill the bath tub on his own now, and wipe his butt. I am so proud of the progress he has recently made. He is finally growing up, I think....

I am glad you posted this, because my Grade K boy cannot get ready by himself either & I was wondering when he would. At least now I have an idea!
