Thanks, I still can't believe it. I still can't believe he's not going to live here. He's going to dorm. Scary, happy, sad. It's a very strange feeling. You know right?
Ya know he didn't talk until he was almost 4 yrs. old. He had trouble with his hearing. He taught himself how to read instead.

You must have been so worried about your youngest when he wasn't talking by 4 years, and now he's done so well, the success is even sweeter. My son didn't speak until he was 3 - 31/2, and that worried me sick, but he's absolutely fine now. He's coming home from Uni on Tuesday for the summer. I guess I wanted my son to leave, because I think it's part of growing up and reaching maturity, and going after your ambitions, but I always love him coming home. I don't know how I'll feel when my last child leaves in 3 years or so. Knowing me, I'll probably be pleased. LOL There's no doubt it is a scary, happy and sad time all at once though. hugs, bone.

He was getting therapy when he was 17 months. Then went on to SP. ed Preschool till he was going on 5. Since his speech wasn't great, he taught himself how to read at 3. By 4 reading at a 1st. grade level. So the learning was always in him.
I'm glad he'll be living at school. It will be good for him. Exactly what you said. Plus he'll only be an hour away. Now a days there's email, texting phone calls etc.all that stuff.

Thank You so much. The whole family is so proud of him.

(I wish my father, MIL and his cousin Scott was still with us to enjoy this too.
He was very close to my father when he was growing up. My dad took him everywhere. He'd be so happy).
