36 days to go
We've had to revert to the usual 'holiday strategies' .... Kaylee doesn't cope well with an absence of routine. The school day is just about perfect for her.... she knows what is to happen each day .... she can feel that she is in control.
Holidays however ... her known routine is gone! So we try to build a new routine for her .... at school she can look at the schedule on the wall .... so we have a schedule on the wall too! We build a schedule for the current day and the next day coming. Then she can know where she is in the day.
It doesn't help that she still has a bit of the head wog. Naomi still has the wog and she is suffering.
It's midday and Kaylia has just pulled out another tooth .... one from the bottom this time! We had no idea that this tooth was loose! She just pulled it out.
Her language use was significant .... she kept saying "open, open" as she wiggled the tooth out of her mouth.
We've been for two drives this morning .... each time we had to change plans. The first trip was to go to the movies .... but there were crowds of noisy kids and she couldn't stand it. Then we tried again .... this time she didn't want to get out of the car. So Naomi went shopping while I drove laps around the shopping centre.
It's a very hot day (37 degrees at 11am) and it will be worse before the evening. Fortunately the house is cool.
