I've noticed that Alex is showing a lack of patience with recurring events, such as his classes. (I wonder why? ). I wished to find a way to teach him that while it's best to use your free time to have as many different experiences as possible, he also had to understand that there were also routine events. Someday he would go to school every weekday and he had to get used to that. I decided to work out his calendar with stickers so he could see routine events cropping up every week. I dashed into Trotta's to buy a large book of various stickers.
Trotta's has mini-shopping carts that are child sized. I thought Alex would have fun pushing the cart around while we got the things we needed. He had other ideas. He wasn't interested in the sticker book or the beach shoes I was getting there too. He went straight for the toy aisle loaded with cars and action figures.
'We're buying these today, Mama.' he informed me as he loaded up the shopping cart with cars and power rangers.
Sorry Alex. Those are going back on the shelves.
