Just another day.

Mark woke up congested and feverish again.  So we missed his last day at school.  Hopefully he will get to see everyone and say good bye on Monday.  And even better, hopefully everyone will keep in touch through here and he can see them now and again later.

Despite the yucky waking, the morning was good.  He picked the date out of a field of three with no problem.  I think I'm going to pull out the other magnet numbers soon and have him "spell" the numbers.  Right now 11, 12, 13 are on the magnet as such.  But with the other magnets he would have to pair the numbers to make the numbers higher than 9. 

And he got me good.  I asked him about the weather using the puzzle pieces again.  Well he pointed to the cloudy one which shows the sun and clouds.  Fortunately I kept my mouth shut until I looked outside.  Yep, it was bright and sunny but there were clouds as well.  I think I'll need to make a separate cloudy icon.  And even better, make sure he understands that it's ok to make more than one choice.  Such as sunny and cloudy, snowy and cloudy, etc.

He got his putty out today (blue) and put it away by himself when he was done.  And he didn't have too big a fuss over having to read with me.

But the afternoon pretty much got blown because he developed a headache while we were at the grocery store getting his medicine.  Ah well.  We'll try more tomorrow.  And I'll make sure to only do short brief trips for the next week or so until the headaches have abated.

But right now he's hunting tickles and kisses.  So I'm going to go play.
