ellisisamazing Report post Posted March 28, 2007 Hiya Vix, Congrattys on your boys achievement!! Hope you don't mind me jumping in?! I have been busy so couldn't post earlier. Last Friday, Ellis was dropped back home by bus, took a look at me and said "Mum!" I nearly fell over with excitement! He said it again today, and also said "Ello"....... (in a BARRY WHITE WALRUS OF LOVE stylee way!!) It's so lovely, but I am so trying hard not to expect too much from him. I am very emotional at the moment too and keep worrying about the future for him, I keep logging in here and seeing parents/families with their struggles and it makes me so sad..... Think I am going through a natural low, I have been soooooo positive and Gung Ho about everything (trying to make sure Hubby and everybody else who worries is ok!!!) and I seem to have hit reality, and my Hubby has just had an informal dx (?) of Aspergers, so I'm a bit fragile! I have never felt like this, Ok, I cried for a few weeks when we had El's dx, but we just got on with it. And it taken me 18 months to feel a bit wobbly!!

Lisa, I know just what you mean! I feel very much like that myself at the moment. I'm so pleased to hear your wonderful news about Ellis - I can only imagine what an amazing feeling it must be to hear him call you Mum. It's lovely to hear positive things.

hev Report post Posted March 29, 2007 it must have been brilliant to hear ellis say mum <'> <'> how are you feeling tonight? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ellisisamazing Report post Posted March 29, 2007 it must have been brilliant to hear ellis say mum <'> <'> how are you feeling tonight? Much better thanks Hev! I just seem to be on a bit of a slump recently......I am always so, MRS TOTAL CONTROL!!!, and I kind of burnt myself out, trying to do everything. Plus I have a really demanding two year old who is jealous of Ellis (ooooh a rhyme!) and is very whiney right now, so I kind of lost it a bit. But I am OK today, I have realised I'm not Superwoman and sometimes I need to take a step back and NOT do the shopping/cooking/housework etc. or let somebody else do it!! And it was a real OMG moment, hearing that! Priceless! How are you, Hev?!! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Vix Report post Posted March 29, 2007 It's wonderful isn't it!! I can't believe Kyle is saying Mummy after 5 years of nothing! I keep pointing at myself so he says it!! I worry about the future too, I try hard not too but I'm a born worrier. I wish I could keep Kyle at this age forever. Vicky xx Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
