Sleep happened. I woke a little early but Owen slept until about six. He was super excited for his day and to see what his therapist was going to wear. He also wanted to continue the trend of making his teacher happy.
He was once again in a great mood when he woke up. His usual request came in for cereal and chocolate milk. He was also concerned about my bunny ears but I was wearing them. It is amazing how he latches on to specific looks and how he handles them. The bunny ears almost feel like they are becoming like him wanting me in a dress or others in blue pants.
I am trying to have him help with more routine tasks like taking out the trash. The goal is to teach him independence but he doesn’t necessarily understand that trash is something that needs to be done. I have to remember one step at a time and get him used to doing different tasks. I took the trash bag out of the trashcan and asked him to carry it to the front door. He didn’t squeal or ignore me and took it straight to the door.
We got ready and we went out to wait for the bus. He knew today was his last day of school before the break so he was very anxious about what was going to happen. He wanted to make sure I was picking him up for therapy and I told him yes. He also wanted to make sure that he would be on Christmas break.
I picked him up from the school and we went to his therapy. While we were waiting, he started talking about the difference between the words, son and sun. It’s always interesting the connections he makes to words and how he uses them. He has come so far and he explained to me the difference between the two.
He did pretty well with his therapist. He didn’t get mad about her clothes but he did talk a lot about them. It felt like progress for him to be able to do the exercises and complete the session. He didn’t wanna go anywhere today on the way home.
I told him we were going to meet with our advisor for his program tomorrow, and he was already planning on when he would see her, and when she will be gone. He has the hardest time with the unexpected and having someone over is very difficult for him. He wanted to go to the park instead and that would’ve been easier on him. I should not have told him until the morning but I also knew he would be excited to see her so I was hoping that would help.
He is already talking about the break ahead and wants to know when he will be going back even though he knows the month, date, and year. Any and all breaks are hard on him. Even if he enjoys it, it still throws off his routine and he thrives in having his routine. I’m thankful for a good day and hopefully, he will sleep all night. Find happiness in your heart and watch your success grow. Smiles to all and donut daze!
