He told me he would go see his teacher on Monday and that he was on spring break. I said are you excited about spring break? He said, “Yes” without hesitation so maybe he can’t process how to be happy that he has days off because he needs his routine and it is so important to him.
He woke up still sounding froggy but it was definitely allergies because every time we walked outside he sneezed and he told me about it. He says, “Sneezed I sneezed.” He told my mom yesterday that he was “froggy.” I love it when he uses the words I’ve used with him or others. He is making so many connections with his communication and emotional skills.
He started talking about his doctor. I asked if he wanted to go see her because he felt sick again. He told me no, that he liked her, calling her by her first name that he learned one of the times we went to see her. He said she makes me happy. This makes me happy. The connections and being able to express his emotions now is such a beautiful thing to watch. The impact she has made on him is incredible.
We walked outside to go to therapy and the frogman returned. He sounded so froggy as soon as he got outside with the trees in bloom. He was doing good while we were in the house. He was so happy to be at therapy. We went to see the burger boy statue but he didn’t want to get out.
On our way home we drove by some churches. His therapist had said he did good and was very lowkey. He wanted to use scissors and she said he did excellent with them. He hit about 75% of the marks she had on the paper for him. He was very calm and asked her a lot about taking a break from spring break.
After his bath, he could tell I was very emotional. The last few days I haven’t felt my best and I know I’m still processing the radiation. He did his fake laugh for me and said, “You’re laughing.” I love that he knows how happy his laugh makes me and I know when he does the fake laugh he is doing it specially to make me happy. This means the world to me.
Bedtime was once again fast and right away he was asleep. He is ready for the next three days to go quickly. I’m thankful he had a great day with so many connections. Each day is a gift. Let tomorrow be your day for special moments and beautiful memories being made. Smiles to all and donut daze!
