Linus was a bit cranky last night.
When we took off his helmet to get him ready for bed, we saw this:
It still looked the same after 45
minutes, 1 hour, 2 hours...so we made the decision to let him keep it
off for the night. He seemed more comfortable and happy. This
morning, his face was still a bit red. Diane came for PT this
morning for both Josie and Linus. She looked at the picture and his
face and agreed that we needed to call the orthotist. After a trip
to Monroe, Linus was back in his helmet and was a happy boy.
PT went well this morning. Josie used
the balance beam (Pierre didn't realize how much use this beam was
going to get when he built it), and worked on a puzzle. Then, we went
outside to play ball and run around. While Diane was stretching
Linus, he fell asleep. I have never seen someone sleep through
physical therapy, but Diane assured me that she has. Once, she was
done, he woke up and was ready to play.
After a busy morning, Josie was a
little tired when her OT, Lisa, came to work with her. Josie really
enjoys spending time with her “teachers.” To her, it's like a
playdate. She can't wait to start “big” school and is always
talking about “classroom” and “backpack.” She is becoming
independent. I am not sure I am ready to send her to school, but I
know I have to let her go.
Speaking of school, tonight was Open
House at the elementary school for kindergarten and 1st
grade. I saw Lucie's truffula trees, Alice's volcano (which really
exploded), went on a scavenger hunt, and saw so many projects and
artwork hung in the classrooms and hallways. Tomorrow, we will be
back for 4th and 5th grades.

Pierre called the restaurant we usually order pizza from and asked for 2 pies for Pi Day.
After a bit of explaining, we got 2 pizzas with 3.14 written on them in pepperoni and mushroom. Happy Pi Day!
