Owen slept until after five and I only woke up once last night. He was happy this morning and laughing. It’s been a long week not seeing this much of his smile so I was thankful for the laughter.
Besides the lingering cough, he definitely had tons more energy. He didn’t want to go anywhere today but was ready for church, Burger King, and seeing the fish tomorrow. I told him we could go today, but he kept telling me after church. When his routine changes, it is hard sometimes for him to do anything completely different for the day. It felt like it was a good day to rest for me.
He was watching out the window for people who were walking by our house not wearing blue pants. This was a whole new level of blue pants and I pray the trend doesn’t continue. Sometimes I think it would be easier if I put a film on our windows so he can’t see out but I know that is not the answer. I’ve lost count of the meltdowns he has had from looking out our windows. It breaks my heart when he starts crying because someone has parked in front of our house and if they ever park in the opposite direction that is a whole other level of a meltdown.
He started asking not long after he woke up if he could take a bath later. He generally does this when he has his whole day planned and planning into his days ahead. As the day went on he asked the questions numerous times and I said, “Not yet.” He replied, “Not quite yet.” It always amazes me when he phrases things like he has heard me say it or he adds his own twist on it to convey what he means. He amazes me with how far he has come with his communication skills.
He spent many hours sitting next to me showing me his tablet and wanting me to play his games. He adjusted my bunny ears many times and I suggested he wear them again. He put them right on and left them for several hours. He was calm all day with only a few moments on high alert for one reason or another. I hope that he sleeps well tonight so we can go to church tomorrow. He sat watching Disney in Portuguese and his giggles when Mickey and the gang would do something made my heart happy. Laugh out loud, dance to your heart’s content, and share your beautiful story. Smiles to all and donut daze!
