Dance!

Remember junior high dances? The music, the drama, the fun? Tonight I get to watch from the sidelines; take it all in. Jackson loves these dances, tonight for the first time he seemed to actually contemplate what he would wear. Once we got here, he had to get a stash of snacks from the concession stand and then he was ready to rock and roll. He practiced the cha-cha shuffle and cupid shuffle during a study period at school. I would have loved to been a fly on the wall watching 6 boys bust a move with him. Tonight, he's taking it al as I work on this entry he is doing the chicken dance. Its the minor miracles like tonight that take my breath away giving me back pieces of a life lost. I have to smile through tears as my sweet boy learns to navigate through life. Tonight, I believe I can see the wings of the angels that guide him. We are blessed beyond measure.
