I remembered that Mickey Mouse Clubhouse was going to have a Super Heroes show on TV this morning, so first thing I asked when I got to Barbara's home was could I watch it.
GGF and I stood in front of the TV to watch the entire show. I was so engrossed in the show I didn't hear Barbara the several times she asked me about eating breakfast. She decided to wait until the show was over to bring it up again.
Daddy bought me a hand-held airplane whose propeller is a lighted fan. (I'm holding it in the picture above.) I played with that fan of and on all day. I asked everyone if they were hot. If they said yes, I would use my fan on their fact to cool them off.
Barbara and I were sitting on her bed, covered with a quilt, hiding from some monster. She said it was just too hot under there. It took me half a sec to say, "Where is my airplane?" I knew that airplane fan was the answer to cooling her off so she would stay under the quilt with me. I am always thinking.
Barbara had to make a business call and I was super super super good, not making a single peep. I hoped it would earn me a "surprise." Barbara said you never know, but don't count on it, so I won't think I always have to get "paid" for doing the right things.
It was nice outside so we had batting practice. I especially love the huddles we have. I was running and fell hard on the driveway. I ended up with a very tiny scrap and maybe bump on my forehead and my hands were scraped a bit also. We went inside to wash my face and hands. By the time we finished, I was all better and ready to go play again.
We played the normal "Cars" and "Fireman" games. I helped take apart a jigsaw puzzle.
Most of the day I was very very good. But we had one major problem. I accidentally hurt GGM and I refused to say I was sorry. I ended up in Time Out and I had a major tantrum during Time Out. I don't just sit down and take it. I was crying and negotiating that I wanted Time Out in a different place and I wanted to stand up, not sit down. I ended up having to stay in Time Out two times. Finally Time Out was over and I said I was sorry and I played very nicely for the next few hours. Barbara and I had a talk about how much better it would be for me to do the right thing and not be stubborn.
Barbara and I played Candy Land.
I played it correctly and I won easily!
At the end of the day, when Barbara was tired and I was probably tired to, I was doing to much whinging, talking back, and being a pill, so I ended up in Time Out again. It need to learn that I am not in control of everything and won't always get my way. Barbara has decided to reread the book 1-2-3 Magic Effective Discipline for Children 2 - 12. She hopes to better understand how to help me be a happy boy, one that people will want to be friends with.
Here is Mimz' finger after the bandage was removed. She had a cyst removed.
