Impressive Friday - our autism journey

Owen slept until a little after five. I was in and out all night long but got more sleep than most nights. He was very calm and talked about his new school as soon as he woke up. He wanted his tablet and I wanted a little more sleep. He went to his bedroom but it was like his tablet was still in the room with me because it was so loud.

I had decided we weren’t going to do anything today. Between his appointments and mine, almost every single day is filled with something. I thought today would be a good day to stay home and also for me to rest. I was in very little pain all day. It feels more itchy and twinges occasionally than anything else but I still wanted to take it easy.

I was surprised he didn’t ask me about going to the pool but I had told him I couldn’t go in the pool for two weeks so maybe he understood that and didn’t ask. Around three o’clock I asked him if he wanted to go to the park and he said no so I didn’t push it.

We talked about soccer off and on all day and the question certainly will be answered tomorrow if we go. I asked him what we were going to do in the morning he said, “Soccer.” I asked him if he was excited about going and he said, “No just grandma’s.” We shall see how it goes. I want to try to take him at least one more time but he is more excited about going to yoga next weekend than he is about soccer.

He laughed a lot today and had Siri giving him the translations of so many words. “Kangaroo kangaroo kangaroo in German,” I heard him ask. Sometimes she doesn’t understand what he is asking and the translation gets even funnier to him.

It seems like we ate all day long but that works for me. I pray for sleep tonight and another great day tomorrow. I am beyond thankful he was calm and didn’t get upset at all today. I’m thankful for his progress and mine too. Never give up on the hope for tomorrow. 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.
