Unsleepy Drawings

My son used to hate drawing, he didn’t want to color with crayons—ever—and he didn’t like to write, at all.   For the first time though, I think he’s starting to like drawing and coming up with things to draw.  

My son couldn’t sleep last night.   My husband took him into the bonus room where for forty-five minutes, my son drew things.   And they were pretty good things, considering he didn’t like drawing at all just a short time ago.

The first picture is of sports my son is interested in.   See if you can guess them all:



This second photo is my children in the back seat of the Tesla Model S (note my daughter who is wearing glasses) with dad driving them to McDonalds.   The lower half os of my son on the electric scooter my daughter got for raising the most money (#1).



The Big Boy Update:  I got my son a weighted blanket.   It’s five pounds with small glass beads in a matrix inside.   Some children like the feel of weight on them and when my son is upset, he likes to hide.   So I thought I’d give it a try.   He was very interested in it when it came in the mail today.   Tonight he’s underneath it, probably sweating.   Maybe I should go check on him after I finish this post…

The Tiny Girl Chronicles:  My husband put my son back to bed the other night after he did the drawing above.   As he was walking out the door my daughter suddenly jumped up out of bet and said, “wait for me”.   Then she must have woken up more because she said, “daddy, why are you here?"
