Owen was happy but not overly happy about going to school. It was the just right amount of happy. It was like there was peace in knowing the day was finally here and routine was back in order. He slept all night and he was very excited about his day. The repetitive questions were still there but I could tell it was a relief for everything. He was happy to know he was also going to his music therapy and vision therapy. We got ready and went out to wait for the bus. He knew “Mommy gonna pick me up mommy going to pick me up” and that was a happy thing for him. The bus came and he was off to school. When I picked him up from school his teacher said he had a good day but there were moments they all had to go through to get back into routine. I totally understand that. He was very happy to be at music therapy. I could hear him singing with the therapist as I waited for him. It warms my heart to hear him sing. His voice is amazing and once he realizes how to use it I know he will be singing his own songs with the music he wrote. After he was done we came home to get a snack before his vision therapy. He was also excited about going but sometimes it is hard for him to process all the steps. We got out the door and we got to his made to his appointment. I brought his glasses with us and thankfully they were covered under warranty. I wasn’t sure if they would be able to fix them but the company will replace them. I have to remember to take them from him when he gets home from school because he tends to play with them more than wear them. He did pretty well at his vision therapy. She had him do some activities with stomping and clapping. It helped a lot. She asked him to try to snap his fingers and he tried. He was able to do some other exercises that he couldn’t do before. I made the mistake of telling him we could eat the pizza at the restaurant if he wanted. He said, “No no no” so we came home. We will try pizza tomorrow when we go to Santa. He wants to show him the app on his tablet that has Santa on it. He chanted Santa all night long. We shall see what he thinks tomorrow when he gets home from school. He ran to me like an idea just occurred to him and he told me he wanted to go to dinner with his grandma on Wednesday. I told him he needed to text her so he could ask her. We will go if all the ducks stay in a row but you know how ducks go. I’m thankful for the return to routine. Be bold, be beautiful, be you. Smiles to all and donut daze!
