This is H, doing his homework. That in itself is a major miracle - but this is voluntarily doing his homework. At 4pm, not 9.30pm at night after an hour-long meltdown. One of those very rare and special occasions, when you just look, and smile, breathe deeply and relax because this is a GOOD moment.

Well done to him. Must be such a relief.
ReplyDeleteAww that is great that he is doing it voluntarily!!
ReplyDeleteHehe, that would be a miracle in my house also, my boys have told me a few occasions at 8pm 'Mum I have homework that has to be in tomorrow' AAhhhh :)
ReplyDeleteH looks a similar age to my son, who is 9. If he is anything like that, this will indeed be a proud moment worth capturing on camera!
ReplyDeleteHe turns 12 on Tuesday :) First year of High School and hadn't ever done homework before... (The whole school work is part of "school ASD thing going on..) so I am so thrilled that this has happened, even if it is some time before it happens again!
DeleteWhat a fantastic moment - well done to him :) x
ReplyDeleteOh yes - a very good moment indeed :)
ReplyDeleteOh I have a son like this, I have twins, one would come in sit down and the other would kick up a storm, do anything to evade homework, or in fact lots of tasks, treasure this special moment. A good moment indeed.
ReplyDeleteI have twins too, they are soooo different, just like yours. Makes for an interesting time with homework there as well! Thanks for commenting :)
DeleteThat's so sweet!! Homework is often a battle in this house too so I understand that joy when they decide to just do it, without the endless pleading!! Looks like really neat writing too ;)
ReplyDeleteaww bless him, we've yet to get to that stage but I remember the struggle with myself and my folks when I was in school!

ReplyDeleteWell done, both of you. He looks so intent on his work, I find it hard to believe you ever have to use coercion :)
ReplyDeleteaww, so lovely!
ReplyDeletewell done, it looks like he is enjoying it :-)
ReplyDeleteAh bless him - he looks so serious x
ReplyDeleteWell done to him! Homework can be a battle on times, I am sure he will do well in his studies.
ReplyDeleteWoohoo! Did you go in the kitchen and do a secret celebration dance?
ReplyDeleteGoodness yes! Your heart does happy flip-flops at moments like this!
DeleteThat is a good moment :) It is sometimes so hard getting them to sit down and do their homework, and when they sit, it is sometimes even harder to get them to actually concentrate and DO it. Well done.
ReplyDeleteWell done him - i hate homework nagging
ReplyDeleteAaah - don't they look so grown-up when they sit all studiously like this?
ReplyDeleteAww bless him, that's really great :)
ReplyDeleteWell done, I am sure there will be more beautiful moments like this in the future.
ReplyDeleteIts nice to get pleasure from little achievements.
ReplyDeleteAlways a good moment, I hope he was proud also x
