We had a great 4th of July I decided to take Seoc to the parade. They had all kinds of those blow up things for kids there, of course he didn't want to get on any but he ran around a while. Then we went to a little bistro while wasting time for the parade to start. It of course got busy because everyone else had the same idea. He was getting a little loud and my MIL told him to "Be quite you are embarrassing me" ROFL I said "You are going to have to get over that,lol" She said the man at the table behind me was giving us the look. Here I was thinking he was doing Great. Then we went outside and walked back and forth until it was time for the parade to start. He was actually into it this year. He cheered a few times and when he saw Dora the explorer he said "Boots where are you?" for those who don't watch Dora that is Dora's sidekick and he is always with her, lol. He doesn't miss a thing. Some of the floats were rather loud and he just covered his ears without having a meltdown!!! So after his nap I decided to try the fireworks, again he did wonderfully. I let him run around (when I say around I literally mean around in circles, lol) until the fireworks started and he sat on my lap for the whole fireworks show. We were naming the colors when they would explode and when it was over he clapped and said "Bye fireworks". Last year I would not of thought this possible. It was a wonderful day!!
