Together time

Tonight, the Lego lover and I spent an hour watching his Spongebob Squarepants dvds and eating popcorn to excess. He now knows how to make the popcorn in our air popper without any help and we ended up with three big serves of it by the end. We had a really nice time, just the two of us. We’ve done this a few times lately and it has been a good way to spend time with him.

LL has been somewhat clingy lately, repeatedly asking where I am when I go out. He told me recently he felt like there was a string connecting us and later elaborated that it was like a string of Lego that breaks apart when I am away. His psychologist suggested at a recent appointment that I write down where and when I am going so that he can see where I am at all times. That was the first really good appointment for LL and he seemed pleased with the suggestion. So far, he says it’s helping him to feel better when I am away. I’ve just taken a small exercise book and written down day, time and my location most times when I am out.
