Cyber Monday Update
Hope you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving holiday. Nick was very excited to see his brother, Hank and his grandparents. As I was setting the dining room table the night before, he went to his PECS (Picture Exchange Communication System) book, and handed me this icon with his grandparents on it. Nick is 22 years old and has Down syndrome and autism.
We enjoyed a nice Thanksgiving dinner and plenty of leftover mashed potatoes for big guy! Nick was happy to see his Thomas the Tank engine ornament, while decorating the Christmas tree.
Nick tried to make off with his brother’s new vacuum cleaner for himself. He must have thought Christmas came early for him, instead of Hank. He managed to drag the box all the way into the living room. He loves to vacuum and does a nice job at it. This has been one of his community jobs for several years since high school.
It was a nice visit with family. The leftovers are finished, the Christmas trees are up, now onto Cyber Monday. I might have to add another Shark vacuum to the cart. That’s what is in my noggin this week.
