George was still in bed when I came over! It's overcast so that could be why? While he was in the shower, I cleaned up a little and put some pictures on the tree. We had lunch at home and then we tried something I saw on Pinterest. It's an art project with crayons and canvas. The crayons are supposed to be lined up at the top, you tilt the canvas and then you use a blow dryer to melt the crayons so they run down the canvas...well, I have no idea how they kept the crayons on the canvas! They were all over the place. I finally just let him do it flat. (By the way if you need some useless trivia, yellow crayons do not melt.) I ended up getting out some paints after he was done blow drying and he painted over some of it. When I asked him after wards what it was, he laughed and said "It's an egg". He did this project for a long time. I got him a snack and showed him the 'picture tree', he had that sideways smile when I told him about it.

That's a great painting! What a nice idea, sounds like fun. It was nice to keep him company through skype today. He seemed slower today. Hope he perks up. I know the weather makes a difference. Maybe on Friday it'll be nice enough to go out and get some sun?!

Thanks for being so creative. It's not easy.

He liked it. He worked on it for a looong time. I'm trying to think of things where he doesn't have to use his hands for a long time, ya know?
