Another Woman!

I was sick, passed it to James, and we gave it to Dad.  In school, out of school, part-days.  No heat for two days, walking around in 50 layers. James HATED it when I blew my nose, actually yelling at me.  What a ROUGH week.  Not to mention the gallery had an opening this week so Dad was super busy and could not stay home and rest.  

Good news is that today is Friday.  The opening was a success. The heat is back on.  And, most importantly, James is at school, after a SUPER OT session.  He fell in love with the daughter of one of his sensory gym's staff.  Her school was closed for a teacher's conference so she and her sister were helping mom.  James took one look at her and turned to me and waved.  I asked "Do you want me to go?" as I usually stay and learn and participate as much as I can.  He said "Yeah!" HE DUMPED ME FOR ANOTHER WOMAN!  I am so happy I am tearing up now.  He was smitten by a beautiful, 7 year old, blonde Polish girl.  He is going to be fine, he will participate in the this world! Another great "normal" thing.  He "played" me yesterday.  He had a rough morning at school.  Coughing and crying, making his nose run.  His teacher called me and I went and picked him up.  As soon as we got outside, James started laughing.  I asked him what was so funny and he said, clearly: "Movie!"  "Oh," I said, "Are we going home to watch a movie?"  He nodded and said "Yeah."  He was so NOT SICK that we went to Speech later in the afternoon.  Once again, this week with James was good, bad, exhausting and exhilarating. How the heck am I going to kick my cold????
