Planning
You can't tell much about a new job after one week. What I have been able to tell, is that getting to spend a few hours with Alexandra every morning is great. I've seen more of her development first hand this week, than I have all year.
Early in potty training, once in awhile, Alexandra used to get an m&m. She never forgot. Nearly early every time I put her on the potty, she asks for one. When you tell her no, she quickly switches to asking for a vitamin, then a sticker.
On Thursday I got her up, and put her on the potty. She did well, like usual. She asked for an m&m, like usual, then a vitamin.
"I'm sorry honey, we're all out of vitamins."
"Go car. Go store. Get vitamins."
There wasn't a pause, there wasn't a question. I was floored. She can create and verbalise plans. Now I've got to wonder, is this the first new big thing I got to see because of my new hours? Or is this the first thing I've noticed I've missed because of my old hours?
