Disneyland

It has been a crazy few weeks at our house between all that has been happening with Mark's father and Matthew being sick so on Wednesday we decided to take a mental health day and go to Disneyland. Matthew loved it and was so excited to see the characters he loves to watch on television. He would just squeal when he saw Pluto, Mickey, Goofy, etc.

We met our friends the Derelioglus there. Matthew was so excited to see his buddies Riley and Connor.

It was hot and my little fellow dozed off for a quick nap......Doesn't he look like an angel?

Matthew's favorite rides were Autopia, Dumbo and It's a Small World. His face was in complete awe as we went through the attraction while he sang It's a Small World as loud as he could. He later said he wanted to ride again on the "boat in the swimming pool" (guess that is actually a fairly accurate depiction). Seeing Matthew's joy and hearing his precious voice singing was the highlight of our day.
We finished the day with the parade..... the smile on his face was priceless. We had so much fun! It was such a wonderful day and one we will remember for a very, very long time.

I need Matthew to tell Kristina that Disney is a fun place. She didn't like it. I think her sensory issues were at their peak. She may be able to better cope with it now.
It is so great to see Matthew enjoying life.
