We slept better thankfully. I only woke up once last night. Owen was a little elevated and went through everything he needed me to know quickly but at least it was after five when he came to me. He wanted his tablet and started immediately telling me to eat my banana so he could throw it away.
He kept talking about today being another holiday with the snow until the 13th. He didn’t think he would be going to school tomorrow either so he was focused on next week. I am hoping the snow that is coming tomorrow does not prevent him from going to school on Monday. It is all so much for him to process but I am glad he is handling it better than he has before. It amazes me that he knows the dates so well he will randomly say them.
The discussion once again was what his best friend was going to be wearing in February. He hasn’t seen him in months and his not knowing what he will be wearing in February caused a huge meltdown. He wanted me to say he would be wearing shorts. I said it but he still couldn’t stop screaming about it his friend’s clothes. I know it also has to do with him wanting to see him. I can only imagine everything he goes through. I hope that next year they will be back at the same school.
His therapy was canceled for today because of the weather. I wasn’t sure that we were going because I thought that it would be too hard for him to understand we could go there but not to his school. He had been so calm all morning so I was glad they had to cancel it.
My mom got Owen a new interactive video game set. I was able to get it up and running. He liked one of the games. It is a fruit-slicing one. He did pretty good with it. He has to stand in front of the screen and use his arms to hit the fruit. He kept saying “one more time” after the timer was done and then said, “Fruit game.” He played for at least 45 minutes. I think he was tired but enjoyed it.
He sneezed and he told me that “nose pee” came out. Then he told me that it was “nose poop” when he blew his nose. I explained what it was called and what generally happens with your nose but I liked his thought process better.
Bedtime came quickly. Tomorrow I have a doctor’s appointment and Owen will be going to my mom’s. He will be thrilled. I didn’t tell him because I was hoping he would sleep tonight. He may not get to go on Saturday because of the snow we might get tomorrow night so I’m glad he will see her tomorrow. I’m so thankful he handled today well again. Find your happiness in the little things and it will change your world. Smiles to all and donut daze!
