I sat on the kitchen counter and helped Mommy and Barbara fix out breakfasts and lunches. I was waving celery like I was leading a big band.  If you look closely you can see that my forehead and bridge of my nose are swollen.  We can not decide if it was from my fall in the park or if it is an insect bite.  I waved to the big kid school bus.  I went to school happily.
A couple of firsts:
At Wal-Mart with Grandma and Barbara I fastened the grocery cart seat belt all by myself.  I said, "No, No.  I can do it."  Then I proceeded to show that I could.  Maybe Mimz had already taught me how to do that.
Also... Barbara always, always, always held my hand when I would go down the staircase at home.  Well, today I keep insisting that I was "fine" and I proceeded to come down the stairs with no assistance.  I have done it many times before for Mommy, but this was a first for Barbara.  She is a scared-y cat.
I love to use Barbara's phone and also her computer, even though she generally discourages me from bothering either of them.  I know how to find music on her computer and how to turn the speaker volume up and down.  I like us to dance to country music.
I used the potty two times today 100 percent by myself.  I got upset when Barbara or Mommy tried to come with me.  I raised the lid, put my seat in place, put my step in place, took off my diaper, got on the seat, did my thing, flushed, and ran to tell everyone of my success. There was evidence that I really did go.  I would be led back to the bathroom to wash my hands.  And boy do I love that, because I play in the water for several minutes and often get upset when I am made to quit wasting water.
I fell asleep in the car for ten minutes and woke up when we got home.  I did not take a nap and boy was Barbara tired.  She missed her afternoon nap.  I only had a couple episodes of being cranky even though I did not go to sleep until 9pm.
