My break from school started Monday. I was happy to have the boys home and enjoyed spending the day with them. We spent the morning lounging around reading and playing. Then we headed out to bowling fun. We bowled for a few hours and even though it was sensory overload for CJ, he hung in there and did a great job. After bowling we decided to have dinner out. CJ doesn't do restaurants...he doesn't like being surrounded by people he doesn't know, he really doesn't like waiters/waitresses, and a restaurant can set him into major sensory overload. Thankfully, it was just 5:00 so it wasn't too busy and the waitress was very tolerant of CJ. He was a trooper and did a super job with so many new activities.
Tuesday really should have started my break, but it snowed....again! That makes 8 snow days for CJ this year. It ended up being one of the warmer snow days we have had, so we finally convinced CJ to play in the snow. He had a great time sledding down the hill in the front yard and helping shovel. We had another great family afternoon together playing in the snow.
Today...my break started. Thanks to Mommy Hungry! She invited a few friends over for coffee and treats. It was so much fun to reconnect with my friends. I loved every bit of my morning. Waking CJ up, making him breakfast and walking him to school. Then a few hours with friends...I couldn't ask for a better break!
