Day 439 – Grayson’s Journey

Dear family and friends

Grayson woke up this morning bright eyed and alert. His alertness and assistance shaved a full 30 minutes off of his usual morning routine! He was still alert and smiling when he returned home this afternoon. Many thanks to Austin and Xixi for picking him up from the clinic today!

Austin and Xixi joined us for sushi this evening at our favorite La Canada sushi bar. Grayson's alertness also kept him wound a bit tighter, so he kept standing up from the table. (There are pluses and minuses to this "alert" thing!) Fortunately, asking "Where are you going, Grayson?" usually does the trick. He usually responds, "I don't know" then he will sit back down when asked. Once he responded "bathroom" and we were on our way. Listening is still an important parenting skill!

Back home we made it an early night. It is officially the weekend!

Pax!
