So, part of Zac's therapy is learning to be alone without freaking out. Like, at bedtime. He starts getting scared, being in his room by himself, in the dark. The doctor said he needs to lay there and focus on clearing his mind, calming it so he can fall asleep.
Well, he told me he was ready for bed at 7 last night! I let him lay down at 8 and watch tv for a bit....or until he fell asleep. He came in my room at 10:30, crying, saying,"I can't calm my mind! I'm trying, but I keep thinking about Santa coming. I can't fall asleep and he's not going to come!!"
So, I made Gage lay down with Zac until Zac fell asleep. Gage said he was immediately out. haha. Poor guy.
I was up until about 11:30 watching my True Blood my mom bought me!! Woot, woot!! Seasons one AND two!!! Love it!!
Then I checked to make sure the kids were asleep, and Santa put the presents out.
Theeeen, Zac came running in my room at 6:15 yelling,"Mom, Santa came!! Santa came!"
I was like....cool, let's sleep some more then check it out. haha.
Not happening. He went and woke Gage up, I had to drag myself outta bed and watch them be all excited about the things Santa brought for them.
Gage said,"Wow, Mom....Santa gave me all the Jackass movies." I said,"Heck yeah, Santa's down, yo." haha.
So after all the ooohing and ahhing, I went back to bed at 8:30 and woke up at 9:30 to Beauty laying in bed next to me, licking me. haha. Sweet girl. :)
Now we're at my sister's house, chilling with them. My aunt Brenda and cousin Ashley came in town last night.
