Is everything okay?

You know life can play some cruel jokes on you. When I gave birth, my son was perfect. He took till he was 5 months to roll over, but he walked at 10 months and was always seeming to be ahead of the curve with everything he did. Then he turned 2 1/2 and everything seemed to go very wrong. He's now over 3 and still won't fully potty-train. He had fluid in his ears so his speech is still not very clear and he doesn't really communicate with you as fluently as do other children his own age. I keep wondering if I'm being paranoid. Do I expect too much? He's clearly very bright because if he wants to accomplish something - he goes right about doing it. Maybe the things I'm measuring aren't really that important.

But when he's sleeping, I look at his angelic cherubic face and know that he's perfect.
