Pool Party July 5th

We had a great time with all our pals at Cindy & Sam's farm & pool. Greyson swam almost all day. He has to wear his life vest as he cannot swim yet. We start swimming lessons on Monday so I hope that the great folks at the YMCA will be able to help him learn to swim. We will see. It still makes me a little sad to see him around regular kids since his differences and challenges are quite apparent to me. He hangs around all the other kids yet he keeps to himself and just plays nearby. He so wants to be apart of what is going on but it is obvious that he just doesn't always fit in. He seems totally unaffected by that though so that is good. We just roll with it because I know in time he will be just fine. This is our normal and he is just Greyson no matter how you slice it. He is a sweet and loving boy that just is a little misunderstood at times.
Later in the evening at the farm we cooked out and then they shot off fireworks over the pond. We had a wonderful time and are glad to have such great friends to hang out with. Well...we had so much fun and Greyson crashed once we returned home. He was sleeping in the car on the way to the house with his eyes open which made Michele and I laugh. He looked like a bobble head doll poor guy...he was exhausted!
