We May Have Turned a Corner

My three year old little man has always had a difficult time when it comes to being separated from mommy. Specifically at church for his Sunday School class, or Junior Church, or the Wednesday evening kids' program (Truth Trackers). We finally decided to scale it back to just Sunday School, figuring we needed to take baby steps with this boy! Alas, even just a 20 minute Sunday morning class seemed more than he could or would handle. He is always very good sitting in "big church" with us (for a 3-yr. old), but we really felt he should be able to attend all his classes without crying through the entire hour.

However, this past week, it was like a light switch flipped on in his brain, (or his will), and he attended Sunday School and morning Junior Church on Sunday with a smile, and then Wednesday evening, he did the same for that class! I'm still in shock. I'm just praying that it's a new beginning and not a fluke! :) What a blessing to be able to sing and pray with my hubby, and listen to the pastor's words from scripture minus a child's whispers and wiggles. It was like a date! So, I'm very hopeful that my "baby" boy is starting to grow up a little! It's definitely about time!
