Andy has been making use of the Mixy Squish that we received from The Horizon Group. This air dry compound is really neat and Andy has made a few fun things. He had made a fish and now he has made the taco. The compound stays solid once dry but it also stays a little squishy, too. It is really interesting stuff.
I took Andy to karate for a special bully prevention session. The school always does an excellent job with teaching kids the skills needed to deal with bullies. This afternoon Andy also received a postcard from one of the black belt volunteers at the school and it really hit him. You should have seen the smile on his face.
For special donut Friday I picked up some Halloween donuts that looked like mummies. Andy loved it! I’ve been being a lot better about the extras but I went for a donut myself.
It was a big day for getting things done. I got a new blower/vacuum for leaves. I got the back yard cleaned up so that we could have a backyard movie night for Andy and he friend Bella. He was so excited to be able to have a friend over. We watched Hocus Pocus and it wasn’t until bedtime that we found out that Andy did not want to watch that movie. He watched it, though and got through the night. We talked to him and asked him to make sure that he tells us what he would rather watch next time around.
