Our Solomon was given the rare opportunity to go for a full day date with grandma Rae yesterday! She made intentional plans, and took him out for the day.
They hit up the Western Development Museum, the mall, the dollar store, and they grabbed some lunch and treats along the way.
There was no shortage of stuff to do together, and he didn’t appear homesick at all!
Towards the end of the day, Solly sparked an idea, and asked Rae if five year olds could have sleepovers. Rae asked if he wanted that, and his reply was that he should probably ask his parents first 😆 Good call, dude.
So, he did! And we accepted! He came back home to gather up his blanket, toothbrush, and fresh clothes, and on he went! He did NOT hesitate, and that speaks VOLUMES to how much he has changed and developed this year! I am SO impressed!
He did well through the night, and was happy in the morning 💜 His night away was a great success!!
I am SO happy that Solomon has grown and was confident enough to spend a night away, without a sibling!
I am SO grateful for our incredible neighbours who love our children and accept them as family, no matter what.
We are so fortunate in so many ways. We are rich in love. Praise the Lord.
