Maybe it’s exhaustion, maybe it’s sadness, maybe it’s because the screaming was heavy today, maybe. Once I finally got Owen to sleep last night he slept until almost seven but he woke concerned about his routine.
The snow, my exhaustion, and his anxiousness were piled on with everything I touched not working properly. What’s worse is when you know something isn’t working and that is going to upset Owen more. He wanted to watch “Curious George Halloween.” As soon as I got it up on the screen he fast-forwarded to a section watched it while I poured the water for my hot tea and then turned it off. This is how the day went.
I started to walk away with my hot tea in hand and he decided he wanted the Mickey Mouse Clubhouse on the TV. I had to sign into the app on the TV. This would not work at first for whatever reason. Forty-five minutes later it was up on the TV. My hot tea was not hot at this point and my success was quickly overshadowed by the TV being quickly switched to another channel and Mickey’s face disappearing from the screen. This is how he watches most of the videos and TV shows but generally, he does it on his tablet.
The hardest part is the screaming. I didn’t get the videos going fast enough. And some days I’m tired.
He wanted to go bowling once again but it wasn’t open. All day was then a no for anything else. I told him we would go tomorrow if we could.
The eating machine was in full swing again. He is definitely growing. I’m glad he is making choices of what he wants to eat now.
By the end of the day, he was much calmer but still wanted what he wanted. I know that some days I have to keep pushing forward and today was one of those days.
He hugged me before he went to sleep and I know that he understands we are a team. Find your inspiration and let today be your guide for tomorrow. Smiles to all and donut daze!
