My son wrote a note about his personal history and I am amazed how great of a writer is he at 13. I made him known that I am very proud of him and that he should continue to write and always do it. When he was a lot younger, my routine to him is asking him to write me a love note or love letter. When he is angry ,I encourage him to write it down. I see some snippets of those note sometimes around the house. I am able to know him more when i read his piece about how he see things and how he feels.He is an incredible young man. Uniquely Eddi and every one who knows him will just nod their heads and agree that he is eccentric in his own clever and annoying way at times. He even diagnosed himself with ADD. I researched it and he was no way anywhere near the description but I always thought there is something really so different about him that it frustates his brother so much. My son have no OCD as i see it, he is not weird in things he does but he is unique in his decisions and learning methods and seeing the world at times. We fought for what he thought is the right way and the better way...when all he wants is to be the winner in the discussions and attacks on tackling chores the Eddi ways.He tells me he loves me and becomes quietly obedient when he learns he is wrong or misjudge the situation. He is an amazing literary genius in the making and my father who exuded in intelligence and philosophy would have been proud.I am blessed yet so much trial and frustrations will still be in the offing bringing up a smart philosopher of his own making. I am ready as i am proud to have him test my witts and parenthood.He is, afterall, doing what he knew he thinks is just and proper...the Eddi way.
