I played nicely all morning at Mimz' home. I sprayed water in the garden and made mud. I walked through it getting my boots muddy. I told Mimz that was okay, that that is what farmers do. They walk in the muddy fields and say, "Hi pig." That made Mimz smile.
After lunch, Mimz took me to Barbara so she could go check on GGM Lil. It was nice outside, so Barbara and I played tag until she got tired. Inside we read a book on our new iPad. I already know how to use an iPad. Mimz, Morgan, and Grandma all have them.
We played pretend all day and evening. We had car wrecks and I was injured and needed an ambulance, hospital, and doctor. Only once did I let Barbara be the injured person and I was the caregiver.
I decide Barbara would be Santa Claus. I asked what Santa Claus was doing and was told she was cleaning her glasses. I said, "No, Santa Claus is a man." I don't forget what characters we are playing.
A big part of the evening I was Izzy, a good pirate. I spend time playing pirates more than anything else...... now.... that may change next month or even next week.
I love to be read to. Today Barbara read three books to me using our iPad. But I have now discovered that I really like to be told made-up stories about people I know. I like the stories about my school friends: Hannah, Sophia, and Trent. Also stories about Izzy, the pirate. I want to hear those stories over and over.
Remember those really bad tantrums I had last week? Well, it has been a few days since I have acted that way. Barbara told me today I was a perfectly behaved child. I was happy and co-operative all day. I did not take a nap and did not go to sleep until 9:15pm but even still I was never cranky.
