Today I had my happy girl back. She was running around as she normally does. She did relatively well at therapy before we had to go for a dental checkup. She wasn't so happy there, though. SHe tried to run off with another man in the lobby again- climbed right up onto his lap. I don't know what it is but she really likes men. I guess she figures women are always the ones who torture her (including mom), After the dentist we did a grocery tour with a balloon pickup on the side, then home.
She came over to me to take me to the back door to swing, but I sat down on the floor with her instead and we sat down and watched the rain and talked for about 15 minutes. This will make Carey Anne happy( but I didn't talk about the squirrel like you did that one day!) Then we sat on the sofa for another 20 minutes just snuggling . Her eye contact has gotten sooo much better. I can tell she really looks AT me and sees me. She makes the goofiest faces most of the time! I wish I had away to memorize the moment because she just sat with me and let me rub her feet and look at her hands and tickle her toes. There is so much to appreciate if we can just take a few minutes to do so and I am blessed to be able to have this time with her now.
Now I just have to talk daddy into getting a swing for inside (because we've traded place with Seattle, it seems!)
