Does this couch make me look big?

Levi came out and wanted to sleep near me because he was lonely. He started in the beanbag but then squeezed himself into this kid's couch. I love it because a friend has an active 18month old boy and the same couch and I can just see it being used until he is nearly 5 too.

We called Robert for his birthday. I gave the phone to Levi who brought it back in a minute in tears because "Robert can't speak to me right now!". It's hard to not laugh. I explained that he was talking to a machine and Levi calmed down. He calmed down and was able to leave a happy message. I got to talk later and could explain the strange message to Robert; that and that his present would be really late as I mailed it yesterday.

Levi had a 'really good' day today and I love hearing him say that. Too many adults just have 'fine' days or 'OK' days. It is lovely to hear a little boy so happy with just a regular day!

Now where did I put that wrench!

Well when you don't have a pocket, where else would you put your tools??! Levi told me today that he liked daycare better than school because at daycare you can take your shoes off all day. It would be great if all life was that simple wouldn't it.

I am still not sure if I am going to the big DMD conference in June. The organizer asked me in February but I still haven't heard. I asked the other physio Helen and she hasn't heard either so it is still likely a goer, but I wish I knew so I could plan ahead; that and I could buy a flight for Levi as well.

At school today, Levi's class had a puppet show about cancer, so he came home talking about how you kill cancer with special medecine that makes your hair fall out. There was a bad puppet that teased the puppet who didn't have any hair. I asked if any of the kids in his class ever teased Ethan for not having hair. He replied in a shocked voice: "Oh Mum, no one would ever tease Ethan, only puppets tease sick kids". His mate Ethan has Neuroblastoma and he has only made it for a few days of school this year. At least Ethan went to daycare with Levi and his mates so he doesn't have to make friends each time he makes it in.
