May 24, 2011


One of the moments I do not want to forget. This is a picture of Thomas telling me in the best way he knows how that he no longer wants any more baby food. His developmental therapist, April, suggested we let him touch and play with his food to get him over his aversion to things touching his hands. So I let Thomas play with his food as I tried to feed him. Normally, Thomas would just put his pointer finger in to explore but today he took fists full of baby food and smeared it all over his face. He never did anything like this before. He painted his face and most of his head with squash. I just laughed the whole time. He was such a mess that he needed an immediate bath afterwards. But I got the point, he was a big boy that no longer wanted baby food and if I gave him that stuff again this is what he was going to do with it.
