He couldn’t wait for his very exciting day. I hoped it lived up to all his expectations and more. I was praying the bowling alley would be open. He was praying too. He was already planning his next adventures with all his people. He wanted to make sure I would put them all on the calendar. It’s wonderful to see him making all these plans.
We got ready and we went to pick up our friend Kassidy for breakfast and bowling. He ate blueberry pancakes -his choice and two pieces of bacon. Our waitress was great and she asked Owen a lot of questions. There was also another waitress who stopped to talk to him several times. Both were great with Owen and I loved watching their interactions with him. It was nice.
We then went bowling and he was so happy it was open. Kassidy was able to help him and they did beautifully together. He enjoyed it. I asked him if he wanted to do anything else and he said to take Kassidy home and stay home. Sometimes he can’t process adding anything else to his agenda. We took her home and then we went home. He told me he had lots of fun.
He was wound up tight as soon as we got home. He was into the pushing buttons phase of the day. I’m not quite sure when he started this extremely loud talking but it has been happening more and more lately and in my face screaming. It was the complete opposite of how the earlier part of the day went. The loud talking, screaming, and acting up was how the rest of the night went.
Bedtime was hard. He wants to ask the same questions and will not budge until he finds comfort in words. He finally calmed down and went to bed. I pray he sleeps all night and wakes up after “five oh oh.” Here’s to growth, friendship, and new experiences. Follow your dreams and let the world see your success. Smiles to all and donut daze!
