He came and sat with me under his blanket on the “white bed” for a while. He told me he couldn’t see Santa today because he was feeding the fish at the North Pole instead of Cabela’s. He then told me he would find “Night Santa” which is the one we saw at his therapy place’s charity event. I’m not sure why “Night Santa” doesn’t go to the North Pole but he doesn’t.
We got ready and he was excited to go to school. We went out to wait for the bus. I love how happy he gets when the bus turns the corner. He got on the bus and off they went.
When he came home from school he was talking about his appointment for tomorrow. He said, “Check in O W E N” spelling each letter of his name. I have him sign the paperwork when we get there. I want him to know the steps we have to take when we go to different places.
We are working on a song together, hoping to promote more of those distractions and word references. Each step is a step forward. I want him to know he can do anything he sets his mind to. So far he wants to write a song about a hermit crab named Shell. I think it is a wonderful start.
The night flew by with dinner, singing, and our games. I’m hoping we both sleep tonight and have an amazing day tomorrow. Follow your dreams, love with all your heart, and know that miracles do happen. Smiles to all and donut daze!
