Most of us take for granted the simple act of waving...we don't think about it twice. For David, he just didn't understand the concept. I had waved feverishly at him as the bus pulled away for 3 1/2 years, hoping and praying each day, that this would be the day my son would wave back. Well, this day has come. I got David on the bus and I waved probably for the thousandth time and it happened...he looked straight at me and waved back!!!! I was in complete shock, tears welled up in my eyes. I was smiling and crying at the same time and I gave David the biggest hug ever, I probably hurt him squeezing him so hard. It was something I waited for so patiently and for so long, that when it finally happened, I couldn't believe it! That moment was truly precious. I took this video about a week later. Just remember to appreciate the little things...sometimes those are the moments that matter the most!! :)
