I get up way early in the morning long before the rest of the family and its my quiet time. I originally planned it so I could work out, but I haven't been working out lately (thats another issue on itself). I drink my coffee, write and get my day going. Big Man is long at work, Little Man is asleep and so is the puppy dog, so I have some necessary alone time. Its a requirement for me to stay sane. I do know that I finished out a journal a while back and didn't replace it, so I have not been journaling lately. I need that journaling to get things out of my system and not let things weigh me down figuratively (not literally)
We had some sort of ice storm overnight, and I am not looking forward to going out into it today. I was going to go to the Little Man's Christmas party in school, but I am terrified to drive more than I have to in this weather. So, I will probably miss it. He has a half day today then its onto Christmas break until January 4th. I took this Thursday and next Thursday off so I can spend some time with him. And of course I have both Fridays off as well. This week is good timing because they are predicting a huge snow storm to hit tomorrow afternoon through the weekend. I am looking forward to being snowed in with my family.
LAst night Little Man & I played Sparkle with Sonny and his stuffed animals. It was so cute and so fun and he is such a great speller. He makes me laugh when he does the voices and such for each of his stuffed animal friends. They are all distinctive and you know when he talks a certain way its one particular animal. The amazing thing is he's been so consistent with the voices for the longest time-at least a few years now.
I am amazed too because I was told by the expert that he would never be capable of these things, that he would never have functional language, that he would have all sorts of "issues" blah blah blah. What a limiting diagnosis. I just remember walking out of that office thinking to myself the worst thing you can do to someone is take away their hope, and that is exactly what this quack tried to do. I say try because he didn't succeed. And after I processed the whole appointment I decided that I would go all Jersey on him and prove him totally wrong, which I have.
But I digress....my silent morning is almost over and I do need to get my day on since I have to go to work and little man to school. I have a kitchen to clean up and laundry to throw in the washer and a day to get started.
