Ouch. I told him that I didn't think he would find a household where the people would love him as much as we do. He could try, but I don't think he would succeed. I wish I knew what set him off this morning so that I could avoid the trigger. It was a painful day. He ended up apologizing. And I did the same, for not being able to help him deal with his anger; for not handling his testing of the limits in a way that he wanted. Sigh.
But, this was a good weekend for sewing. I think I got about 30 squares sewn and I have another twelve arranged. Yesterday I felt that I needed one or two more blue fabrics to even out all the reds. Instead of going out to purchase, I dug into my own fabric store and found some old goodies.
I wasn't able to sew much today, but I did deal with the remaining apples from September that Selim and I picked, by making apple sauce. I added both cinnamon and cardamon and wow, it is tasty! We baked banana bread also. Plus we went grocery shopping. Prices have gone up so much. I spent $150 today. Yikes! Followed up later this afternoon with the regular laundry and bed changing. So it was a full day.
Selim let me take his picture a few times this weekend. Yesterday he took off his shirt and curled up on the floor, under a blanket to play with his Lego's.
Today he climbed the tree in the front yard by himself for the first time. He was really creative. He used a stool, microphone cord, pencil, and plastic sword at one point or another in his attempt to get up there by himself. I was very impressed with his ingenuity.
