Celebrate small victories!

Today was outpatient speech therapy session #1 for my youngest Hammerhead. This little dude is typically so scared and concerned when/if strangers approach him. Six months ago, a waitress in a restaurant that wasn't even looking at him, would cause a meltdown. Today, he went back to the therapists office for his 30 minute session - WITHOUT me! 

Don't get me wrong, the session didn't go 100% smooth. He was loud and upset for at least 10 of the 30 minutes, but he did cooperate for some if it. Meanwhile in the waiting room, his older brother was busy saying, "hey girrrrrrl" to a little girl a year older than him. Such a ham. 

Like the subject says, today we celebrate  small victories - but in reality, it's pretty major for him!
