A Strange Breed of Parents...

Apraxia parents are a strange breed. Why, you ask. We are the only parents on earth who celebrate when other parents would be thinking of punishment. How many parents do you know who celebrate when their child says a curse word? Apraxia parents do because it is a new word or a new sound. We live to hear each and every new sound and word. At times, we are known to celebrate when our kids get into trouble at school. Grants teacher uses an app called class dojo. This app enables her to post updates throughout the day regarding each students behavior/progress. The parents can look at their child's report on their mobile device. Positive marks are green and negative are bad. Grant and I always discuss his marks. He knows the difference in the colors. One day not too long ago and found a red mark. I was disappointed until I saw what it was for - talking out of turn. TALKING!!! I tried my best to reprimand Grant for the red mark, but I just couldn't.
