He was so excited to talk about his friend. All morning long he would come to sit with me talking about everywhere he wanted to go together. I love how happy he is. We got ready and went to the bus. His calmness remained even though he could hardly contain himself about seeing his best friend yesterday.
I didn’t sleep as great last night and woke up with a headache. The change in the weather had my head pounding most of the day. Thankfully I was able to eat and drink even though nothing sounded good. I didn’t push myself at all today since yesterday was so busy for us.
His teacher let me know that he had talked about his friend at school today. I figured he would. When he got home we talked about his friend hopefully being with him at school next year. He kept telling me he hoped it would be next week. His teacher will have her work cut out for her because he will be looking for his best friend to come soon.
He was so incredibly calm all night. He said, “We don’t get upset with people because of their clothes” and then he leaned forward to let me kiss the top of his head. He had a hard time with the word “upset” but he repeated this so many times and then got the right word. He added that we have to be nice to people and we don’t be mean. Seeing his friend last night truly made his day and is already helping him with many connections.
The night went quickly and there wasn’t a lot of time that we didn’t discuss his best friend. True friendship is something to hold close to your heart. Each day is a gift and my sweet baby O is a pure treasure. I’m thankful for all the connections and how much he has grown. Let today be your guide for a beautiful tomorrow. Smiles to all and donut daze!
