Happiness Week 5

Posted Feb 07 2012 12:25am
 01/30 Feeding Progress
***
Ainsley signed that she was hungry. I said, "Okay, go sit down," which she did, by herself. (Though I did have to push the chair in for her.) Then I brought her pureed pasta and tomato sauce and some vanilla milk. She ate some. Not the pasta, even though it was overcooked, but we're focusing on the happy things. She even pounded impatiently on the table while she waited, such a normal thing to do.

 01/31 Cardboard***Finding cardboard for Evie's special birthday party decorations, and it only took 2 stops, that makes me happy. Crazy party planning is in my future. It's that time of year again.

Sometimes having a special child is difficult.  E&A's school had Family Movie Night. I would have loved to go, but the reality is that as thick as my skin has gotten over the years, it's hard to be in a room with hundreds of inquisitive children and parents. They don't know I can sense them staring even when I've not looking, and I can hear their whispers. Besides how it makes me feel, Ainsley can't sit still for that many hours so it's not very fun for whoever is on "Ainsley duty".  I think E&A had fun going with their Dad, and didn't miss me too much. They were certainly in good spirits when they came home after winning one of the Silent Auction Baskets. I was most excited about the director board on the front which you can probably buy somewhere for $10. But hey, the money supports the school. There is also a waterproof mini camcorder . I can't wait to see the movies the kids make.


02/04 Breakfast and Coffee***Steve took Adrian to his 8:30 basketball game.  It was too early for bringing the whole family. Adrian's playing is improving and the coaches even said he was the best "defender" on the team. That really boosted Adrian's spirits and he kind of needed it. It's hard being a new player.  I was very happy that Steve brought me home coffee and breakfast muffin from Starbucks. Then we spent the day raking up the rest of the leaves and cleaning with a little break to celebrate cousin Emily's birthday.
