About 6 weeks ago Monkey Boy told me he loved me for the first time. Since then he's told me several times. It's moving and wonderful and somewhat terrifying to see him open up and express his softer and more gentle emotions. Terrifying because I'm scared it will get ripped away once I've got used to it.
He's expressing other things too. For the first time he has started telling me SOMETHING of what is going on inside his head. For example telling me they're learning about the past in school - we then had a whole conversation (slow and faultering, but a conversation all the same) about a couple of things he'd learned. This is so different in tone and feeling to the normal stream of demands, complaints and defiant statements that I'm stunned and delighted.
Change is afoot!
