I have one amazing kid!!

I just need to take a few moments and tell everyone about Max and how awesome he is dealing with all this. And, I'll apologize now, I'm not nearly as coherent as most at 2:00 am. Max has matured a great deal in the last week, I've seen his confidence grow by leaps and bounds. He is happy to step up and try to resolve disagreements with friends (this happens often because we are babysitting 4-5 kids each week). He has this new sense of inner peace - things don't fluster him as easily, he volunteers to help out around the house and his anxiety has visibly decreased. We are so proud of him-HE IS AWESOME!!
