Owen had a good morning. He was a little stuck on his day ahead but he was happy. He woke early again but this time he got his tablet and was quiet. He didn’t even tell me he got his tablet and he kept the volume turned down. This is rare. We got ready for his big day. He loves Thursdays and all the activities he gets to do. When I picked him up from school his teacher said he had a good day and he is an eating machine. I can tell he is on a growth spurt because he wants food all the time and asks for a “second dinner” right before bed. Santa was picking up another child at his school and Owen saw him. He got very excited and told him he needed to climb the school rooftop. We went to the park after school for a few minutes which also made him happy. When we got to his therapy place he said, “We’re early” working through his words and saying what I told him since we generally have a few minutes before his appointment. He had two good sessions. He enjoys speech now. It’s amazing how well he does and that he wants to work on sentences. He used to not want to do them at all and now he requests to do them. He also is working on following picture cards with his physical therapist and doing the exercises. This is a huge step for him. We went to see one of his favorite statues and the burger boy afterward. There is this little wagon ride at the park. I thought we might go but he wanted to come home. It’s been a very busy week for him so I completely understand. He played his ukulele for me when we got home and we recorded Happy Birthday for his grandma. I see progress with it all. I love how much he loves music. He told me his grandma’s birthday is on Monday. I told him no it’s today. He said but she won’t celebrate with me until Monday. I’m not sure why he decided that. He has been talking nonstop about Saturday so I’m not sure why he decided he is celebrating her birthday with her on Monday but let the festivities continue. I’m thankful for a good day and big changes. Dream big and let the world see your smile as you make your dreams come true. Smiles to all and donut daze!
