Dear family and friends
Today was a good day with no incidents of problem behavior. Now that is a great Father's Day present!
Grayson's residential assistant (RA) said that Grayson was cooperative and helpful all day. When she came on duty this afternoon he was relaxing. The first thing that they did was to put away groceries. (Grayson did not make the grocery run yesterday, so they brought food from the market for him today.) Since Grayson was now up and moving, his RA had him check his picture checklist for chores. Today's chore was to mop the hallway and clean the bathroom. Based on the report he did this task well!
Then Grayson's RA led him through his therapeutic home program (THP). He did his orientation questions well, then he tackled another type of THP – the "What would you do if" questions. For example, "What would you do if there was a fire in your living room?" A good answer would be to call 911. To the question, "What would you do if the dog next door barked all night long?" Grayson responded, "Bark back!"
I spoke with Grayson briefly tonight while I was celebrating Father's Day with Regina, Lauren, Austin and Xixi. Grayson wished me a happy day over the phone and the rest of the family treated me like a king. Today was a special day and I felt lots of love.
Pax!
Brant
