I had written about growing up earlier.
As its quite normal in the culture we grow up, DS is still sharing the same room at night with us. A few days ago, we had this "fight" and he got angry and staged a walk-out. He took his pilllows, blanket and his security-blanket and walked out of room; he marched out of the room and decided to sleep on the couch in the living room. This was a big deal for us - he was always scared of couple of things - the darkness and being alone. Doing this was a break-through for us. He actually, slept most of the night on his own, with night-lamp on. The next day we high-lighted it. We keep telling him that this was a sad and happy day for us; sad that we had a fight; but we are more happy than sad, since he became very brave that night.
Definite Signs of growing up !!!
Yesterday, as we were talking we were recalling the names of his friends from India. He was quite ok, until one name came up. This was the name of a girl his age; and who was his friend in India, for about two years. She was the one who was friendly with him and knew his condition but was very sensitive towards him. As soon that name was said, DS became extremely shy, shouted out the noise-word to mask out the name and ran away from the room, with smiles lighting up his face big time !!
For us, its going to definite sighs of growing up !! :) :)
