Tales from the Day Program - 60 cents

(Memory) As much as storms and wind frighten him, he seems much better when he is able to watch what’s going on. Because I won’t let him go down to the garage and watch with the garage door open, he has taken position on the stairs in front of the front door.

Taking a short break from "reminding" me about Christmas Eve... DC woke up this morning with "Happy Tuesday" (not anything he's ever said before)
I guess every day is a holiday in December.
(I did get a "days until Christmas eve" countdown very shortly afterward)

Friday was “camp dance” day at camp. DC came home excitedly telling me that he “Danced and Danced” .
Below is a photo of DC sleeping during the dancing portion of the day.

Dc’s been reciting his last 2 days over & over again.
“Vickie! I need 2 talk 2 u” & lists everything he’s done & everyone he’s met. (yes he calls me Vickie sometimes because he figures that he is an adult and therefore he should be using my “adult” name 😂) #ShoreLeave #autism

DC: It is “sucky” warm outside. Sucky.
Me: Where did you learn “sucky”?
DC: At work. #AlwaysLearning
