Seemed like a good day

When Liam got off the bus today it was across the street. The kids (3-4 year olds) were told to wait until the bus driver held up their hand before crossing. Well, Liam thought the bus driver was just waving so he stood there waving back. The bus aide then told him it was ok to cross. Liam then went over to Jill. The downside to this was in the afternoon when she was outside she turned around to see Liam dashing across the street without even looking. She was contemplating calling the school to see if they drop him off right at our driveway. What Jill found was that when she picked Liam up last year, she could talk to the teacher’s about how his day was. Today when she asked him, all he could talk about was a girl who cried, he had fun, and he saw Kennedy. She will probably resume picking Liam and Seamus up just so she can get the feedback from his teachers.

When he got home Jill said he was a bit hyper and was running about the house playing. After she fed him lunch he ended up taking a nap on his own. When I got home he was hyper. He was climbing on me and started telling me about his day. It was much like what he told Jill, only he was hanging all over me. While I ate he was racing around between the family room and living room. He did not have any fit of note this evening. Liam just seemed to be in quite a playful mood. We’ll see what happens Tuesday.
