Little Things

Today Nate had photos taken for his soccer team the Lil' Cougars.  As he sat proudly on the bench with his team, a grin from ear to ear, the photographer said, "Say Lil' Cougars" and his smile quickly disappeared.  I had never thought about something as little as having him say cheese would not be easy for a child with apraxia or that it would upset him like that.  Afterwards I talked to Nate and told him that the important part was smiling and not saying what the person taking the picture wants you to say.  Definitely something to remember.
