How I spent my Saturday

Saturday was a great day. I went to get my kids at 9 am. We came home played for a few minutes and went to the grocery store. Harrison and Krista did amazing, they shared pushing the cart, and they didn’t fight, and helped me do the self-checkout.

MacDonald’s: This is usually a chore, ordering two big kids meals and figuring out what I want. But for the second time today my kids did very well. Not fighting sat patiently and ate.

The Children’s Museum of Pueblo
Our next stop for the day was the museum. At the prodding of my wife, I challenged myself and took my ten year old Autistic son and seven year old daughter to a hands on museum. Krista ate this up. There were lots of arts and crafts for her to do. I must say that for years now I have tried to make my daughter be extremely happy with coming to see me. She loved this she said that was her favorite thing ever. I was shocked. I will truly remember the look on her face when she said it.

Home to play the Wii
Harrison, my ten year old, loves video games. I own a Wii, not many games, but enough to keep him entertained. You have to stand up most of time; it involves physical exercise most of the time. This is a great thing for him. He loves it, and it is his favorite thing to do with dad.

All in all the day with my kids was great.

Dy-Anne and I stayed up most of the night to play the Wii after taking the kids home to their mom. We played Mario Party 8 for like three or four hours. This game is just plain fun. I am probably better at video games, in general, but this game keeps things interesting. She stands a chance, the skills she has are amazing. There is no way to let her win. She does it herself.
