And T stands for Tigger!

A bit of good T news for a change!

He's been on the Polycal for a couple of weeks now and T definitely stands for Tigger!
You never really know what you've lost until you get it back again - and I never thought I'd be happy to have a naughty child, but now he has more energy that's what I've got!
He's happy, singing, dancing, challenging, bouncing, exploring and simply fantastic. We'd forgotten what a gorgeous giggle the boy has!

We were at church on Sunday and he normally flakes out about a third of the way through – he was sitting running round and playing games with people afterwards at morning tea. People kept commenting on how happy he was, cheeky and playful and just my Thomas again!

My uncle is in town briefly and so we had a family lunch after church. Normally (as I did a couple of months ago) I’d have skipped church so T could rest and last the party. We went to church, on to the family lunch and he didn’t go to sleep until well after his normal sleep time and didn’t lose it until very close to the end.

I’ve even had to cajole him into bed for a nap! I used to have a kid who would come and find me and ask to go to bed!

He gets weighed again at the end of this week and I doubt he’s gained anything – having watched him running around the church foyer pretending to be a train!

But he’s happy, exploring, doing his needed developmental stuff and delightful to be with! I don’t care too much about the weight if I can be sure we’re feeding the brain anyway!
