Happy Halloween!

Aviva was a dragon, and Noah was a ladybug. When she was asked, she'd start to sing her song, "there's a girl I know named Aviva, A--V--I--V--A..." Noah wore some antenna and felt wings that Abuelita made, black clothes and shoes, and a stuffed and decorated red/black tshirt thing that was decorated with black dots, that Josh made. He wore it all day, and his class had a parade down the street. Pictures will be attached.

For a boy who is generous and loves to give things, Halloween is the perfect holiday. We did a little trick-or-treating before dinner around 5:00, and when we came back at 6:00 he insisted on emptying his treat bag into the bowl we used to give treats. And he told people they should take two pieces. Some of the kids who came received back what they were giving at home. That was okay with him. We ate some dinner and then Noah and Josh went out again.

The other day, Noah received a treat from his therapist for doing a good job that day. He chose a lollipop from the therapist's bag, and it was a big, big decision which lollipop he wanted. It took several minutes. He finally chose, we scooted home, and he saw the boy who lives downstairs, Declan. He gave him the lollipop and was very excited to give it, and did it without even a moment to contemplate. He really likes to give things. That is a nice quality, which we should find activities that support and encourage.
