They Could Even Get Smarter And Reach Their Potential

Yhea your right but in other way, that's the stage when they started to decide on their own, we can't control what they want we can guide them but they will decide if they will take our advice. Don't get too much stress when they don't want to listen sometimes we must let them experience some mistake for they will learn from it.

hi lyn. he really makes me proud. and not only him, all of my kids, they always makes me a proud dad. although sometimes, i can't help to think that they stay young but not a good one. i say this because, with my other children, once they reach their teenage years, they change a lot. they become to stubborn and never listen to their parents. well, it's really something we are thankful to the One Above, that He moved for help to reach us. still, no one ever told me how those people from that tv program were able to get the story of zay and how we needed that help.

i agree, all we can do is guide them with our advice but we cannot control if they will take it or live with it. i always try not to get stressed with their attitude but it really irritates me when they keep doing what they want. it stressed me more when my wife starts to do the talking.

you're right, we parents only could wish for the best for our children. and i also agree that we should be thankful when they do good in everything they do but we should not push them to be excellent. thanks friend.

We can't push them. Just nudge them in the right direction.

thanks. oh yes, he really made me so proud of his latest achievement being his first time to go to school.

hi cloud. how are you doing? it's been a long time since we last talked. how's business? i am also thankful that i met you here and could never forget how you have shown your concern for this kid during the time we deeply needed the help for his medication. God be with you always.

I'm doing well Neil,thank you! Yeah been a long time since we talked regarding on Zayzay's condition.Thank God your son is doing good now and I'm so proud of him for being a great fighter.I'm so happy for him too and his updates. Keep in touch!

and there were even those who weren't even diagnosed with the condition, just slept one night and never woke up again. thanks for the greetings and for all the luck wish. the photo actually was taken by one of the photographers doing business during the program even when we have our own camera with us. my wife was also impressed with the picture so we took it for almost a dollar. we have more photos posted on his facebook account.

thanks for the compliment. we are really thankful that after the surgery, he shows great improvements. he's not even experiencing any common illness like fever or colds so far, unlike when he still have those tonsils. and we really didn't expect that he will also be doing good in school, after the doctors told us about the potential thing.

we are all very happy and thankful that things are working out so well for our little angel.

Well remember Neil, we are just recently friends, so I never seen your post and any pictures you uploaded, but he is really adorable. Of course don't tell him that, if he is like most boys, it will just embarrass him.. And I can see how he is a star, and I look forward to watching him grow and overcome obstacles in his life..

thanks for the greetings carmela. how surprising you just saw him on mylot. he's one of the stars here. yes friend, he really makes me very proud every time he accomplish good things. i am hopeful that he will continue to improve.

we are really so proud with his achievements as a first time schooler coming from that condition. thank you so much for being so supportive all the time.

yes opal, we are really happy that he is doing well, not only with his health but also in school. we are really thankful that despite being in the rough road and dark tunnel we passed through, he is now able to concentrate "more" on what he loves doing. of course, being a menace is another thing.

what's blue ribbon? is it the brand of cake and pasties so popular even here in our country? oh well, my wife already had the plan for all the awards they will get, not only zay's but all of the kids. she thought about it and actually, some of the medals are all in one place. so when we have the chance, we will get them all in frames.

i went wrong with the blue ribbon thing, i got confused so i check the net back. oh my, it's not the cake and it's red ribbon that's one of the most popular cake brand names here.

In USA we give a ribbon as a prize. Blue is for best, Red is for second and white is for third. These are given in many areas, schools, contests, winning competitions etc.

we wife's is even more proud than me. and she's always excited and even shaking everytime she go up on stage to pin the awards for the kids. she never learn. what do you mean by "you gave me enough support to reach that."

ah ok.

opppss sorry for that, i meant to say, you gave him enough support. sorry

i was also surprised the first time i heard about this condition and to think, it happened to my own son. there were lots of lives lost while asleep. one night they went to sleep and never woke up again. they were puzzled about the deaths and their only clue is, that person was a loud snorer. they never knew they had sleep apnea. they were told it was a heart attack or even a nightmare. but actually, it was. oh yes, kids today go to school much earlier or younger than in our times. i remember kindergarten or preparatory school were not requested for first time grade schoolers but now it's a requirement.

My hubby snores loud everytime he sleeps,that's our signal that se sleeps deep already. I hope he doesn't have that sleep apnea too. Congratulations on your son again,you're so lucky to have him!
