Guess who was very excited to see his grandma?! Owen woke at one and he had no intention of going back to bed. He did however let me go back to sleep numerous times. He came to check on my progress a couple of times but I would not confirm or deny that he was going anywhere today and instead informed him that he knew the answer so on his merry way he went.
Thankfully I slept in and out for the next few hours and at least he wasn’t screaming as he pointed that out to me. This made me know that sometimes he realizes he is doing it. I finally got up and he asked a lot more questions. He wanted to know what time we were going and what she would be wearing. I told him I didn’t know and I didn’t know. And he wanted to know.
Even though I know he can find absolutely anything and doesn’t forget a thing it still shocks me when he finds random things and how he can actually do it. He came to me with his tablet, open to pictures of one of the indoor pools in our city. He told me he wanted to go to the pool so he could jump off the diving board. He explained that he needed to put his head under the water and breathe. This is something he’s still learning how to do, but he definitely wants to learn so he can go off the diving board. It is one of my rules that he has to put his head under the water before I will let him jump off the diving board.
It was finally time to go meet his grandma and he couldn’t wait. She got him a little pool so I packed his summer backpack with his swimsuit. Last year she got him a pool and he wanted nothing to do with it so this year she got him a tiny one to see how he would like it.
At first, he wasn’t convinced that he wanted to get in it but then he didn’t want to get out of it. He told his grandma that he wanted me to come watch him in his pool. So it wasn’t long and I went to pick him up. He was very excited about his pool and he was talking about when he could go swimming with our new friend. I told him we would go this coming week.
When we left her house, he wanted to “drive around.” I took him to see several of his favorite places and then we drove out to look at the woods. I want him to get used to us driving to different locations and hopefully, we’ll be able to find some property soon and be able to move. When we were close to getting home, he asked if we could get a pizza. I ordered the pizza and we had a little bit more time to do his “drive around.”
I had him carry the pizza inside. I’m trying to teach him to keep the box straight. That is an interesting lesson to teach. He was eating his pizza and had pizza sauce all over his hands. He hit his hand on the chair but not very hard. He looked at his hand and he said, “It's bleeding.” I told him it was pizza sauce and he said, “Nah uhh.”
Nighttime came quickly and he wanted his bath and then to sit and play on his tablet. He fell asleep in my bed and it took a lot of convincing for him to get up. I pray that he sleeps tonight because he knows that he’s not going to his grandma’s house tomorrow since he went there today. He talked about the pool a lot. Both his new little one and going to a bigger pool. I am so happy that he is making all these new connections. He’s doing a wonderful job and I’m so proud of him. Let today bring hope to your heart and fill your soul with gladness. Smiles to all and donut daze!
