Sometimes the hardest part is the hardest part. I feel like I’m constantly in slow motion right now. I want things to happen and I just can’t seem to do anything fast enough. Life I suppose so I pray. Thankful Owen slept and I sleep with one eye open all the time it seems.

He woke up talking about his best friend. My heart is filled with joy. He couldn’t wait to get to school to see him. He was ready to get outside to get on that bus to see his best friend. He kept saying he would have to wait and see if he was there and hope so. Makes me so happy to hear him talk about his best friend. He was also ready for his music therapy and vision therapy. The bus came and he was off.

I picked him up from school and he was very calm but extremely excited at the same time. He was ready to get to his music therapy but he was also very excited about going to the “play center” on their field trip tomorrow. He talked about that mix with questions wondering if his therapist was going to wear blue pants.

He had an incredible session and I’m so thrilled how he loves going and truly embraces music. When his session was done he did not want to leave. He wanted to stay or for his therapist to go to dinner with us. I finally convinced him to leave and he decided he wanted to go ride his bike in circles. I’m not sure why he decided he wanted to go in circles but he had fun.

We came home before his vision therapy for a snack but he wanted me to sit with him and read. He kept talking about going to the “play center” for his field trip tomorrow. He ate his snack and we got ready to go.

He did great at his vision therapy. It is always interesting how much he comprehends without technically understanding something and then other things are extremely difficult that he seems to understand. He is still struggling with directions to find something like up or down, forwards or backward, that type of thing. I’m thankful his doctor is helping him with all of this.

It’s amazing what baggage we hold onto that changes our minds. Baggage of words, emotions, and stuff that continue to overwhelm us unless we decide to change and let go of it. Paperwork for me can be so daunting because it seems to never end for us.

Once again Owen ate a huge dinner and wanted more. Bedtime was quick and he was ready for his day. I hope this doesn’t keep him from sleeping. Find your happiness, let go of yesteryear, and know that tomorrow will be a better day. Smiles to all and donut daze!

    I'm Lynn Browder. Owen's Mommy. The best moments in time are when I get to see the smile on his face and that giggle come from his heart.
