A calm morning had by all. He was one excited dude for a full day of school and beyond ready to get out to the bus. He was talking about going to the dentist next week and knows he will not see “dentist Claus” because it is only Thanksgiving and not Christmas. He has never seen a Santa Claus at the dentist that I know of but there you go.
He said to me “Oh my word” in my voice. I thought about how many phrases he has stored in his mind ready to go at any given moment to use. He then said, “Owen Emerson do not sit on the vent.” I’m reliving all my wonderful words through the years. He is constantly reciting things that I said in the past.
“All done school at Thanksgiving break have turkey at grandma’s,” he said. The things he thinks of amaze me. He went through all the breaks he would have over the school year. He listed each one and then asked me when he would be going back to school. He knows the answer, but he wants to go over each thing again and again.
The bus app is like our fair-weather friend. The bus app wasn’t working again so we had to go out to wait for the bus early. Just when I get him looking at it poof it is gone again. He was excited though because he got to go out early. The pure joy that exudes from him when the bus gets here is magical. I wish we could all feel that much happiness all the time. He was off to his beloved school and oh so ready for his adventures tomorrow.
When he got home he wanted me to bite into his antics and I did not. He kept telling me he was going to rip books but instead, I kept asking him questions about school. He doesn’t like it when I ignore his behavior but I’m trying to get him to realize that we can talk about other things.
He was very amped up but he was listening to instructions. He let me take a phone call without any problem. They called to schedule my port removal at the end of December. I’m thankful that in general, he will allow me to have conversations on the phone without screaming the entire time or hanging up the phone.
He keeps talking about when he will have all his breaks. He wants to know when he will go to “college school” but knows he has to go to high school first. I keep telling him he needs to learn all he can in middle school and enjoy the work so he can go to college school. I’m so glad he loves school and is looking towards his future. I know if he sets his mind to it he will be able to go “college school” and accomplish anything he wants.
The night was filled with many behavioral moments, but thankfully it was also a great learning experience for both of us and I feel like by the end of the night. He was so much calmer. He knows his schedule will be different tomorrow and it took a lot for him to process it, but I know he will have fun on all his adventures. Thankful for the incredible gift of my son. Reach for the stars and know that you can make it. Smiles to all and donut daze!
