I don’t think Owen wanted to go on his field trip at all. He woke sometime after three to tell me he didn’t want to go. I think it was too much for him to think about. He was calm otherwise and ready for all of his other things. He couldn’t wait to get to school and see his teacher.
When we got up, I went back through the steps with him about the field trip. I wanted him to know that he could decide to go later on if he wanted to. I explained to him again that it was just a field trip and he wasn’t changing schools. He kept thinking he was going back to his previous school.
We got ready for school and he talked to me again about not going to the field trip. Once we got dressed, he started talking about his therapy for later in the day. He asked me if his grandma was going to pick him up. I wasn’t sure if she was going to pick him up or if I was going to because we had a plumber coming to fix our pipes. The other day when I told him not to put anything in the toilet, I’m not sure if that happened. He is now finding it to be funny to do things like that so I’m not sure if it was because of that or something else, but we were having drainage problems in our basement.
I had told his teacher that he didn’t want to go on the field trip but when he got to school, he may decide that he wanted to go and that was fine with me. I wanted to make sure he still had the opportunity to go if he wanted to. He told her that he wanted to go to be with his friends and to get game snacks, but he was still upset once he got there because she didn’t come. She stayed back with the other students that didn’t go.
He was happy to see her when they got back from the field trip. He was also happy to see his grandma when she came to pick him up for his therapy. I stayed home and waited for the plumber.
Thankfully, he did really well at his therapy and he wasn’t upset about any of their clothes or activities. After he was done with his therapy, he went to his grandma‘s house for a little while and then we met so I could get him.
He was happy he didn’t have to go to “elementintermediate” combining the words elementary with intermediate. He was happy was still going to be in middle school. Bathtime seemed to flow right into bedtime, but thankfully, he was calm the entire evening. His laugh is always amazing and makes me smile. Find what makes your heart smile and go after your dreams. Smiles to all and donut daze!
