That is the name of one of my new labels. It is all about the MIT. i am seeing things that are showing me how His body is changing against Him. i need to document it. i am going to do it here.
The newest backwards, is He is loosing His pincher grasp. It is one of the main development milestones that children go through. It is when they change from grasping things with their full hand, curling around the object into a fist, to being able to pick up things between their finger and thumb.
The first time i noticed it was a week ago. i thought it was a fluke. He had a couple of really bad days, and i thought this was all leftover from that. i can't ignore it as just because of an episode.
Today He physically was fine. He had full control of all His muscles. His body wasn't fighting against Him. Yet, He couldn't pickup a grape between His finger and thumb. He couldn't pick up a piece of paper between His finger and thumb. He was doing the full hand thing. He is loosing this milestone.
i don't know what it means, beyond that. i can't think of it meaning anything other than that. To think that way will change the way i act with Him. i know, because i did it before, when He was much younger. i let Him get away with things, i wouldn't normally have with a "normal" child His age. i don't want to start doing that again. i also don't want to set up situations where He will get frustrated. That isn't fair to Him. Instead i will sit back, and just watch, and enjoy Him. If i see something else happening, i will document it. Other than that, there isn't much more i can do.
