Expressed "jealousy"!!!

The other evening I was on my bed with Tyler, cuddling, tickling, joking around. Nathan was in another room and we were waiting for him to come in. Well, he stopped right at the bedroom door and took a couple steps back.....and stood there in the playroom in the dark.

Tyler saw him and told him to come in, and so did I. He mumbled something that I couldn't make out, so I asked him to come in and that I couldn't hear him. He came up to the bed and said, "I want you to be happy with me, not Tyler." OOOHHHH!!! I looked at dh, and he had a smile on his face too. This is, I believe, the first time he has EVER expressed any kind of jealousy towards Ty. He doesn't usually say anything when Ty and I are cuddling and joking around.

I cuddled up with Nathan and went thru the whole explanation that I'm Tyler's mommy too, and that I love both of them, etc. I just thought it was soooo cute!!!

Michelle,
What a sweet moment to share with your son.I know they are the kinds of moments when your heart wants to burst and only the mom of an asd child could appreciate so much.
