Day 1094 – Grayson’s Journey


Dear family and friends,

Grayson was amazing cooperative and "with it" today.

For example, when I asked him to return his magazine to the basket he dropped it on the floor next to the basket. This is not unusual. What was unusual is that he missed the second time and the third time and picked it up each time until he got it right. With minimal cueing.

When I asked him to put a large item in the trash he put it in with half of it hanging out as he usually does. This time he reached back and shoved it all the way in.

These things may seem small but they are significant to me. They show not only an awareness of his actions, but a response and proactive corrective behavior. Repetition really does pay off.

It was 36 degrees when I got up this morning and the forecast for tomorrow is 80 in Glendale. No wonder Grayson has the sniffles.

Stay healthy, my friends, as we enjoy our last day of summer-like weather.

Peace,

Regina
