Dear Jakey,
Today you had Minor Improvements with Karen after school. You were sleeping when we first got there so I am not sure how much you heard of our conversation. Karen was pretty stressed out but I think she was pretty excited that you were there and she would get to work with you. When I left I was telling her she should talk to you because you are a good listener. I was kind of joking but I also was sort of serious – even though you can’t talk back you have a way of making people feel like you care about what they say (most of the time – sometimes you pay us no mind!)
Anyways, I came back 45 minutes later to pick you up and Karen was much happier. You really have this amazing way of making people feel good. I am not sure how you do it but you take what we give you and manage to make us feel better. Your eyes are so expressive sometimes that you don’t need words – we can understand what you are trying to say. When I left with you, Karen thanked me for bringing you in today. That sure makes your mommy proud!
Love,
Mommy
I know what you mean, jakey has a way of making your day better no matter how bad it is. He puts a smile on my face every day. He is one of the most amazing boys I know.
I'm so grateful to be considered one of Jake's People! He's cheered up a lot of my days and has let me be there for some pretty special times (I'll never forget his first haircut). Pretty special Mommy, too!
