Three days to go! Tonight I am going to blog, probably for the last time, in bullet form....
- woke up this morning with a Connor snuggle bug. He watched Yo Gabba Gabba while I tried to sleep with a pillow over my head. I used to do that with Joel when he would wake up early. It was nice to do that with him today!
- I met my mom and her friend for lunch and got to take Joel home with me after he spent the night at my mom's house. He had fun and I think he was glad to be back with Connor. When we got home, the two of them played upstairs for a while and I rested on the couch
- Work today was good and challenging. There is a fine line between a melt down for an autistic child and them just not wanting to do something. I skirted that line today while I made one of my clients work and thankfully, he did try to work hard...whew!
- I pinned like crazy today! There are so many recipes on Pinterest! I think I will probably have one of the world's largest cook books online by the time I am done finding all of the recipes I want to try!
- After dinner tonight, we did a nice family home evening and Joel was eager to participate. Then David took the boys swimming at our local pool and I went to the gym with my friend Jennifer. We swam and swam and got a good workout in! Then we drove home and talked and talked....such a nice time with one of the world's nicest and kindest girl!
- When I got in the house, Joel had taken a spill so he was on his bed with ice on his chest. Those little tears made me so sad, but it was so nice to scoop him up into my arms and sing to him and give him kisses. He went right to sleep after that and I am so grateful to have had that healing mommy moment with him!
