You came to my room around 3am and you were snoring hard when I got up for yoga. When I came back you just looked so peaceful I hated to wake you. You played so hard yesterday I wanted to let you sleep in as long as I could. You got up quickly after I woke you and got going. You had spectacular (or spectac-cleee-ur as you pronounce it) listening ears this morning. I made 3 scrambled eggs for breakfast this morning because I thought Daddy would have some, but he didn’t so I packed them up in a container and brought them with us. On the way to school you ate ALL of the eggs. I couldn’t believe it! You also had cherries and mango!!! When we were walking to the gate at school we were almost there & you grabbed your lunch box, sweatshirt and your pasta bag (we brought for the sensory walk) and said “Bye Mom, have a good day!”
When I picked you up from school, I asked if you told anyone about LegoLand. You said, “first thing this morning I told all my friends that I got a real drivers license at LegoLand so I can drive a real car now!” You were so excited!!! We had to stop home to bring in groceries and I needed to change clothes (it was freezing when I left work). I cooked a chicken breast for you and cut some fruit to take to Urfer Park to play. You quickly made a friend who you played with the whole time. You offered her some chicken (which was super sweet but of course her Mom said no) and ran around like crazy. You climbed a huge rock wall all by yourself then got scared about getting down. I was trying to convince you to turn around and scoot your belly against the rocks, but you were starting to get upset. So, I reminded you to calm down, take a few deep breaths and think about how we can solve the problem. You found a different ledge to stand on where you could put your feet on my shoulders and we held hands. You were able to “fall” right into me. I gave you a hug and told you how proud I was of you staying calm and focusing on solving the problem. It’s easy to get overwhelmed and scared. Good work!
On the way home, we FaceCalled Daddy. He met us at home and I made dinner for us. You and Daddy took Harry for a walk around the block. You gave up walking with Ms Moe, Jack Daniels, Mr Franklin and Gus & Ginger the Dalmatians to come back home to watch the Frozen Lego movie short with me!!! How sweet!!!
