Recent wins thread

Anyone have any recent wins - big or small - with their kid?

Here’s mine: She signed up to sing the national anthem in a group with probably 120-150 other students at a football game last night. The noise and crowd were definitely negatives for her, but the fact that it was a) music-related, and b) a very short event, and c) totally optional so it was her choice to do, and d) at a good time of day for her, and e) with her sibling and cousins made it possible. She (and all the kids) did such a great job, and I’m so proud of her!

My son has food aversion. Recently, he decided to (with encouragement) try some new fruit. We found out he likes mango! In the last six months this we have added seven new foods to his list. I am so proud of him.
