The sleep train was not derailed last night and I hope it stays on track again tonight. Owen wanted to sleep a little later this morning and I was fine with that. He was in a good mood when he woke up and I can tell he is feeling a lot better. The cough is lingering here and there but that’s to be expected. He did great again about getting his clothes on and then we were out to wait for the bus. The languages are all in full swing again. He wasn’t too interested in doing much more than waiting for the bus. He was happy when it came around the corner and off he went. I knew he was going to have a good day because they were going to the “play center.” It’s the Clay Center but he always calls it “play center.” I made arrangements with our friends that we might go to the park depending on how he handled everything when he got home. But when he got home he had other plans. He said, “nopedy nope” when I told him we could go to the park so he could ride his bike. Instead, he wanted to tell me about the “play center.” He then wanted to take a bath so he can get ready for his Thursday. He told me he got to ride the elevators and swim in the pool. They do not have a pool unless they got one in the last year. They do have a kids’ water feature they can put their hands in. I know he had fun and that’s what matters. I don’t know that I’ll ever get used to Owen sitting at the table, eating, and then putting his chicken finger in his toes. It’s interesting. He now wants every app available it seems. All the apps. I keep telling him he can’t have them and before I can go on he says “they cost money.” He’s got it right. He asked for four different ones in a matter of moments. He was tracing letters and it was his choice. He kept telling me we are almost done. I told him he could stop anytime and he started the next one. He does this at his vision therapy too. He will say, “almost done time to go home” but he couldn’t wait to get there and then he can’t wait to leave. He ate a lot for dinner and he was ready to go to bed so he could start his favorite day. I’m so proud of his progress. Find your inspiration and motivate your world. Smiles to all and donut daze!
