Back Again

Declan has been back at school since Wednesday. Energy is back and he's eating (a little). 

Wednesday

In the morning as I was saying goodbye to Declan I called him "Monkey" as I often do. His little friend Jessica heard me so as I turned to walk away I heard her say to Declan "Monkey." Mrs. Ritu, Declan's YMCA teacher tells me Jessica keeps calling him "Monkey" now and thinks she's pretty funny.

When Declan came home from school he had an invitation to his classmate Izak's 6 Birthday. He told me it's at one of his favorites places "Skedaddle Kids". He's pretty happy for the invite.

Thursday

Broden was the Super Student and he picked Declan to go with him to the office with the attendance. A very happy kid we had. We did hear that in the afternoon Broden picked Izak but at least Declan was asked first.

Unpacking Declan's backpack and there was a little black and blue elastic band. I asked Declan if it was his and if it was a wrist band. He got excited and came over to me and told me it was for me. I thanked him and asked where he got it. He found it on the wood chips of the playground. So adorable that he thought to save it as a gift for me. And gross.

Friday

And after a busy week Declan is officially done with me working. He told me he was mad at me for my work calls Thursday night and then this evening when I got home late he told me I'd "missed his entire bath." Yay to having the weekend off!
