Signs of maturity...

I know that Michael is 8 years old now, and he should be able to do many things independently. But, he just hasn't been able to. I've noticed in the last month or so, he really is making huge progress. It started out with him picking his own clothes for school, and just little things here and there.

Last night, he wanted a bath so he went to his room and got his nighttime clothes ready and brought them into the bathroom. If I give him a time when the bath is done, he can watch the clock and let me know when he's ready. He still can't dry himself off effectively, but he can dress himself after his bath and get back to playing. Baby steps, but it makes me happy!
