Whew!

We had a great morning! Benny did a fantastic job in gymnastics again -- this time in addition to letting other people go first in line every time, he also did not try to "win" the warm-up exercises. They do crab walk, bear walk, run, jump on one leg, etc. all from point A to point B and typically Benny will kill himself to be first, while other more virtuous gymnasts trot along behind actually doing the technique they're supposed to be doing. Today I saw him making the conscious decision to hang back and let someone else be first -- that is huge for him. No milk/cheese today. Also no peanut butter. One of those things is making him buggy, I'm becoming convinced.

Then we went to the Porterfields and played. We played in the backyard, then had lunch, then Veronica had a great game where they tasted different things, blindfolded, and wrote about what they were tasting and tried to guess what it was. Very fun. Benny was EXTREMELY distrustful and could hardly stand to keep his eyes closed while tasting. Then gave up halfway through, just couldn't manage it. Oh well! It was great for the other kids. :)
