One of the therapists asked me this week if Parker has cried with tears because he had been sad or upset. He has always cried very little since he was a newborn, and he cries even less now. He would only cry if he was hurt or thirsty. (He was passionate about his water). Now he won't drink... but if I hear crying, I go RUNNING because he is either in pain or throwing up.
It made me think today as I was playing with him how grateful I am. Even though the emotion section of his brain was probably injured, he is happy. He laughs. He gets that twinkle in his eye. He recognizes that "I'm going to get you" is a game. He anticipates me and giggles before I even get to him. I found that remarkable this morning. What a blessing.
