Brotherly Love

When I went to pick up the boys from school today Jackson's teacher pulled me aside and said that she had to tell me something that happened today. My immediate reaction was to think that Jackson had gotten into trouble for something. Not so. She told me that they happened to go to chapel today at the same time as Carter's class. Apparently, Carter was crying pretty hard in chapel and Jackson had seen him. Then, the teacher looked over at Jackson and said that he had tears streaming down his face. She said that he wasn't crying hard, just visibly upset. She asked him if he was ok and if he needed to be alone for a little while since he kind of acted embarresed after she saw him and he said "no, I'm not crying." She said after chapel was over he was back to his normal cheery self. Isn't that the sweetest thing ever? They really DO love each other! His teacher said it was the sweetest thing she'd ever seen :-)

On another note, Carter is still having a very hard time at MDO. This is the end of the second week and the only progress we have made is that he finally ate his lunch today. He cries for a lot of the day when he's there. His teacher said that he'll start to play and run around with the other kids and then he realizes what he's doing and starts crying and wanting to be held. It's like he is determined not to like this place and darn it, he's not going to have fun either! I hope it gets better because I sure am enjoying my 2 days a week off :-)
