Fun, fun Saturday! Lots of friends old and new!

Yesterday we decided to give Susan & Megan a call and try to go to Jetton Park at Lake Norman. I talked to Susan and we met up there around 10:30 for the kids to play. we had a great time just talking about Greyson & Meg and catching up a little. I always so enjoy talking with her because she definitely understands all to well alot of what we deal with. We trade off information at times and talk about what great kids Megan & Greyson are. We wouldn't trade them for anything even if things are somewhat tough at times. Greyson has been so attached to Megan since kindergarten. A kinda of little boy 's crush if you will. He was funny yesterday chasing her all around. the both of them laughed and laughed, running playing and swinging. It was great and I loved watching them. Greyson shocked me because we had not been to a play ground for a while. He hopped onto a swing and was pumping his feet and swinging himself before I even realized it. I am soooo used to him screaming for me to come push him but he finally has gotten that trick down! It took a while but hooray for him! He was really going high too. He also hung around on the rings some. His upper body strength is getting better and better. Still not great but it is definitely better than it has been. Little by little we see signs all the time that hi OT, therapy, extra activities like Karate and swimming are paying off. He still isn't the most coordinated guy but we shall see how it develops. He is quite a dancer though. he loves to mimic scenes from movies doing the dancing, voices, lines...whatever. Our lives are filled with responses that come straight from TV shows and movies. We normally have to ask where he heard something and we can always tell when it is a line from somewhere else...well usually anyway. hahahaa After playing with Megan we headed to the Starbucks and had some tea, milk, juice...whatever the pick was.... Megan and Greyson played a little more and then we all headed home. It was great fun and we hope to meet up more with Spring coming on. Greyson and I headed tot he house to meet momom. We ate lunch and then headed back out with her to go get some compost for the school's Friendship Garden. We met Leslie & Zoe and Leslie's dad and headed off to the compost. Michele, dad, Leslie and I shoveled compost into the truck until we had what we thought was enough while Greyson and Zoe played. Greyson loves playing with Zoe too. So he had a very fun day and it wasn't over yet. We drove the compost back home and hung out at our house for a few hours. I washed the Jeep because it was looking really bad while momom made some pigs in a blanket for dinner. Greyson hasn't seen Campbell his buddy from his first school in a while so Campbell and his mom and dad came to the house later after dinner to let the boys play. We all,(the parents), played some games while the kids played. It was fun and I think Greyson was really worn out by the end of the night. He had an extremely exciting day and saw alot of his friends old and new. he is up and ready to go again today. We are going to his school to work on the garden around 1pm but we will probably go to the park or somewhere before we do that. It's too nice not to get out and about today so we will be doing that. Hopefully with Spring coming on we will be able to get several of our friends together for some fun int he park. Yay! Have a great day everyone and a wonderful week. Hugs...Lynn, Michele & of course Greyson. :)
