A special trip with just Kai. Finding shoes for our boy is normally the most dreaded chore I ever do. He isn't normally agreeable. His feet have issues. He has issues. His ability to put shoes on is very low. He seems unable to maneuver his feet, use any strength to push his foot in, he doesn't look at what he's doing. There are tears. He dislikes shoes. Shoe shopping is torture for him and us. Tonight however, we shopped in toys first so he could show us what he might like for his Birthday. He was fabulous and very thoughtful with his selections. Eric followed behind, gathering and putting it up on a shelf to come back for. We bought every single thing he picked out! So fun. I should mention his whole dream list came to $130. All toys. Then we hit shoes. He was told we wouldn't help, he had to put the shoes on 100% by himself. He picked out three pairs and got them on himself! No fuss. No tears. Easy peasy. Progress!
