Do you hear that? Me neither.

2 Timothy 4:7 NIV

I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith.

If you saw my post earlier today, you know I am happy with my boy.  If not, I will bring you up to speed.  Steven went to his classroom this morning after a stint of less than a minute on the floor.  Thanks to Los Lonely Boys' song 16 Monkeys.  Anyway, we picked him up from school and looked at his paper he had a wonderful day!  I don't know when the last time he had a day when he had  no work completed hand over hand and no non-compliance marked.  I am thrilled!  We fought the fight and kept the faith and finished at least part of the race.  I pray that we do not back pedal tomorrow, but if we do today gives us hope.  We had already decided yesterday to take Steven to hike at Cliff Cave in Missouri.  He had a blast getting to throw rocks and have some time out walking around.  Of course toys had to go, but that is fine with me.  It helps him keep himself busy as he walks.  He did great there and had a good ride on the way home.  His favorite Playstation game is still the original Tony Hawk Pro Skater that he played most of the way home.  From Johnsonville to Parkersburg he was in San Fransico purposely getting hit by the trolley and hippie van.  Days like this are so much fun.  I know tonight will be cold, but we are sleeping in the camper.  He deserves some extra reward.  I think I will head off to bed now have a good night.  I thank God for giving us such a wonderful day!!!!  Not only was it a good day with Steven, it was beautiful out to where we could give him good rewards.  Thank you Lord for loving us and caring for us.

God Bless,
Sherri
