I have really been enjoying spending time outside with Alex this fall. Alex is usually reluctant to leave his seductive little collection of IPAD gadgets long enough to really enjoy much anything else, but lately he's been taking a refreshing interest in the outside world. His respite provider introduced him to sidewalk chalk, which I thought he would hate for sensory reasons and never tried with him myself! Turns out he likes it. Thanks Galen! We've been coloring up a storm, and also just sitting quietly in the grass, picking little weeds and experiencing the way nature feels in our hands. I've noticed his energy kind of settling down just a tiny bit, and it's nice!
