Text message from Karolina:
“Max started to take his hairbrush with him in the car and before he gets out of the car in front of the school, he brushes his hair and looks in the mirror.”
“He also told me this morning to take better care of his room, as he found a tea bag in his sink! He said this to me after he bed!?! Honestly I have no idea what suddenly got into him.”
… and last night, I was sleeping with him in the Littleton house after reading a book on trolls.
After a moment I said, “Don’t you want the turtle light on?”
Max replied, “I forgot it.”
I turned it on. It’s the first time he’s forgotten that he needs a night light! Between all of these things in just a day or two, we are really seeing him grow up, to change.
He’s started to make friends with the two neighbor kids; they’ve been over playing in the scary basement and of course they play outside, too. He’s never had neighborhood friends before, even in Lexington where there were a few neighborhood kids.
