Mommy Ping Pong
With both children home, a great many days I feel like a ping pong ball. One moment I’m working with Gabriel learning to read and write, the next moment I’m trying to get Hannah to stand.
This morning definitely felt that way. Gabriel has been watching these shows with a commercial for Aqua Dots. I must admit they do look cool. I’m not willing to commit to a TV mail order experience unless I know for sure that he would really use them. I’m an artist and have tried multiple ways to gain his interest in art projects. I have also been looking for ways to promote Gabriel's fine motor skills.
At the craft store I picked up Fuse Beads with patterns for cars and trucks. I pulled them out as a surprise and he was actually excited. He wanted me to open them immediately. So we actually worked on it for about 45 minutes. During that time Hannah was getting annoyed. The pieces were too small to be around Hannah. Besides being choke-able, they would fit in her Trach way to well. (Plastic in lungs not good) So I couldn’t bring her near us.
Gabriel didn’t want to do the project alone so about every five minutes I would go down to Hannah sing a song or try to change the toy she was playing with. Then I would go back to beading with Gabriel.
Luv for Mommy and 4pts for Gabriel and Hannah
