Heard Without Words

He didn't even hesitate; went up with there with such ease in a gymnasium full of people. I sat on the floor nearby anticipating a bit of anxiety to arise, but nope. Like a pro! As student of the month, E took his certificate, took his medal, shook a hand and sat right back down like whatev. no big deal guys. 


I'm almost ashamed to say that I didn't really think he'd do it...but he still surprises me everyday.  I like surprises.  He may still need a hand to hold, a parachute to pull, but who doesn't when fear creeps up on them or they step foot in uncharted territory? 


Then Alex upchucked his entire lunch at my feet. Like a peace offering, except with much more liquid.
