Letter to son: Best day ever, 9 June 2014
Hello Gorgeous, Well, I did it, we went to the butterfly house and though I felt I had to leave after a third of the way round, I still did it. It was uncomfortable, but I did it, and I am much less reactive around butterflies and other fluttery creatures now. I even took you to an owl handling session. I held the little owl but you did all three, even the really big one. You told me that it's wings cooled your head down. I was so proud of you, you didn't really understand why I could only hold the small one but I explained that it was like you, when you come to a climbing frame that is big and new. First you climb part way up, and I help you down. Next time you might climb to the top, and I help you down and then the next time you probably go all over the top and down the other side with no help at all. Slowly does it. Anyway, I digress, because the reason I wanted to write today is to demonstrate to you and thank you for all the new...
