Last week, Ian cooked up a new game called “Santa’s Sleigh” or “mud slide,” which involves sliding down our wooden staircase while sitting on the comforter from the bed. Jonah was alternatively shocked and delighted at Ian’s new game. Both took many runs down the stairs before this game was banned forever.
With Ian’s delayed speech, he’s had plenty of tantrums and screaming fits over the past couple of years. There’s been lots of frustration for the poor boy. But creative naughtiness is new. Like Jonah, I’m alternatively shocked and delighted with the new Ian. “Santa’s Sleigh” has been the first of several new tricks.
