Sadbh
woke up at 8 and teased me for a while. I tried to hold her hand and she kept
pulling away while giggling each time I got close.
Eventually
I was able to grab her hand and she held mine for a few minutes until she got
bored and wanted to go see Mommy.
Sadbh
did a great job eating her breakfast as quickly as possible this morning. She
was motivated because we were going to spend the morning at the zoo.
We
first had to pick up Aoife, Conor and Aibhin and somehow I was able to fit
everyone comfortably into the car.
Our
first stop was the penguin enclosure. From there we headed to see jaguars, onto
the gorillas, zebras, giraffes, elephants, lions and everything in between.
The
kids had a fantastic time and you could tell they learned a lot from the
experience.
Ali-Baba
came by later in the evening to hang out with Sadbh and to also help me with
trach care. Sadbh was way too busy playing and having fun with Ali-Baba and had
no desire to stop for trach care. As soon as she found out that there was a tea
party planned after trach care she quickly changed her tune. Even Sophia helped
out and before Sadbh knew it we were done and she sipping high tea with her
pinky in the air.
The
rest of Sadbh’s evening was spent playing with Sophia and with the promise of a
movie she ate her dinner in record time. I was shocked.
Katie
is away for the night on a well-earned night out with her friends and Sadbh was
fine with that.
As
soon as dinner was over it was time to brush her teeth, change into her pajamas
and we both snuggled up while watching Pocahontas. Thankfully Sophia was quick
to fast-forward through all the scary bits.
Sadbh
enjoyed it and as soon as I hooked up all her equipment she was out like a
light.
It
was a hectic but fantastic day and it was so good to see Sadbh so happy
throughout.
All
the best,
Wayne, Katie and Sadbh.
