I don’t know which is worse, to tell him or not to tell him that he is not going to ride the bus to school. Also, add in if I should tell him school is on a delay because of the snow. And that his grandma is picking us up so I can go to my appointment while she watches him until it is time for him to go to school. These delays, cancellations, and other changes are taking their toll on him. He is so worried that he is not going to school that he can’t fall asleep or when he does he wakes up many times. I was very thankful for last night’s sleep.
I had my radiation and they went off to explore the things he likes to see. When I was done my mom dropped me off at my house and then she took Owen to school since it was in the opposite direction of where we were.
When he got home he told me the bus would feel better tomorrow so he could ride it to school and home. He was calm except for talking about how one of his friends did not wear blue pants. He told me that it matters to him. I always tell him I know it matters to him and is important to him but others do not know how much he likes blue pants until he tells them so they don’t always wear them.
His teacher sent home the codes for his school app so I could add them for him on his tablet. To say he was happy is an understatement. He was laughing and was, of course, answering some of them incorrectly so he could get the boing noise. He had a math problem and he told me or clicked on every single one of the wrong answers laughing the whole time. His laughter is the best though, especially when he knows he is doing it wrong so it’s hard to correct him when he was having so much fun. He now tells me his laugh is “amazing.”
Dinner, bath, and bedtime blended together but bedtime didn’t seem to end. He came to me every few minutes concerned once again he wasn’t going to school or seeing his people. I am thankful he loves school so much but I wish I could find a way for him to connect with life happening all around us. It is hard for him when everything keeps changing. Sleep finally happened but I wondered how many times he would be awake during the night. I pray he sleeps all night. His laugh makes my heart so incredibly happy and he knows it which is the best. Find what makes your heart happy and let the world hear your song of praise. Smiles to all and donut daze!
