PLAY FIRST

 Where did time go?  Work got hard and I decided to semi-retire back in March.  It was glorious.

Just now I woke from a dream with "Play First" on My mind.  I have decided to start a movement: "Play First and color outside the lines."

Peace on Earth

So: last week someOne suggested that I focus on peace on Earth and see what happens.  Sounds good to Me so I tried it.

By the time I got home Friday I was Allready deep into multiD and the multiverse.  I soon went to dream.  I had a 3 day weekend and I spent it dreaming.  I got deeper than I ever have before.  I dreamt of peace on Earth.  I visited worlds where peace on Earth is the norm.

It was very fun and exciting.  I do knot remember exactly what it was like because it is too new to Me and too different from My normal waking world.  I felt it.  I Am kinesthetic I feel My dreams and it felt Onederful.

Today I returned to the school bus but I was barely in 3d.

Can You even imagine what peace on Earth would be like?  I found that I can knot.  Not even in My wildest imaginings.  I can not come close.  Not yet.  As I experience it more it will become familiar.

Peace on Earth.  That's where I wanna live.

Preschool started

Preschool started today.  We had 2 of Our 3-5 new students.  One was taken by parents and others are going to afternoon preschool or something or something else.  We take two little boys home from A.M. preschool and "they" are sooooo cute and well behaved.  One is vision impaired so I have to kinda lead him.  He is first off so I sat with him and when I got back on the bus the second boy patted the seat next to him asking Me to sit there.  I like being asked to sit with students.

Our first student is very playful and likes to sing.  I enjoy listening to him playing even though I rarely know what he is playing.  Yesterday I thought it might be starships and today he brought Buss Lightyear. I told that I used to have a boy who had Woody.  He asked: "Who is that?"  I Onedered what world are You on?  These children think and process differently from a lot of Us A-dults.  "They" focus on what is important to "them".  The rest: well, who knows.  I really theel that I Am making progress with My loud boy.From what the other students say he screams in class too.  I can tell that part of it is play and I theel part is for the attention.  He is sleepy a lot and he does often have gas.  Again: glad My nose does knot work.

My game player has a friend who sits with her now and she is better at getting into her seat and getting off the bus.  Her friend helps her unbuckle at school.  Very cute to watch.

Our morning schedule is very tight and We were late on Our second section.

Shop took Our bus hostage for the afternoon as "they" regularly do.  The different bus made everyOne want to sit in different places and We are both okay with that.  It changed the dynamics.  "They" were sharing pictures, videos and cartoons that "they" have on "their" phones and students who normally keep to "themSelves" were participating.  It was interesting to watch.

Our two middleschool girls got a bit carried away and I even had to have the driver pull over Once.  That Allways gets students attention.  It did get "them" to calm down for a few minutes.  I have knot dealt with teenage girls much so I Am learning.

The students Allways teach Me.  I really am grateful for the experiences.

Allmost forgot: I get to go into multi-D a lot because that is where most of the students are.  Sometimes "they" take Me very deep.  I really do knot know how much telepathy goes on.  Probably a lot more than I Am aware of.

The week begins

Another good day.  The students are great.  Our scheduling is still haphazard.  Times that changed Friday changed again today.  I ponyhop and it does get better.  Baby steps.

It does seem like autumn is here early.  Mornings are cold and most afternoons are still warm.  Lots of the fireweed has turned red and lots of tree leaves are gold.

My loud boy started to get loud a couple of times and I was able to calm and quiet him.  I'm not at All sure what the loud is about.  It is mostly noise, but does seem to be happy noise.  It may be about attention.  Sometimes he talks very clear and other times he is hard to understand.  Regardless: I Am glad I can calm him.

One boy missed the bus and We had to go back for him.  That made Us about 20 minutes late to Our first school.  He was very happy to see Us when We got back.

The boy who rides alone will have company starting Wednesday.  He had his tablet for kids today and was having a good time laughing at whatever he had on.  He was out most of last week and forgot where he sat.

My game player went right to her seat and sat down with a little direction from Me and mom buckled her in.  She will have her little sister joining her Wednesday or Thursday.  Lots of parents take "their" children the first day.

Preschool starts Wednesday so We will start having a noon section and get to meet several new students.  Preschoolers are usually My favorites.

Several students did not ride in the P.M. so We had an early afternoon.  Our non-verbal girl still has lots of smiles.  She really has a great smile.

One girl has said that she is ugly several times.  All I can do (in the physical) is tell her she is NOT ugly.  And I can send love and I do.  She and her friend can be a bit of a challenge and I do give "them" as much slack/space as I can.  Today the friend picked up All her trash and threw it away without being told or even asked.  I thanked her.

It is Allways nice to get off early and come home.

Friday

Ponyhopping works.  First of All it calms Me.  I repeat: "Please forgive Me.  I love You and I thank You.  Whenever the issue comes up again (and it Allmost Allways does) I repeat again.  My mind is like a dog with a bone worrying it until it is worn out and far beyond,  I did a lot of ponyhopping last night and this morning.

The children were great.  Some were a bit wired (probably because it is Friday) and it was happy wired.  We can work with that.  My loud boy started to get loud a couple of times and I was able to calm him.  Progress for sure.

Preschool starts next Wednesday.  I made My parent calls right after morning route.  Some of preschoolers whose pickup times were impossible for Us are going to PM preschool and so will not be on Our route.  This makes the times possible.

I did not have time to get as deep into dream as I have the last 2 days.

My PM students were great too.  My non-verbal girl is still happy, smiling and waving.  The last boy home did not show any signs of talking to him-Selves.  There is no seat directly across from him because that is where a wheelchair goes.  He was ducked down behind the seat in front of him most of the ride.
