St. Patrick's Day came early due to rain. Weird.

It's super rainy 'round these parts today, booooooo... So we decided it was time to celebrate St. Patrick's day a day early.  I put together a Saint Patty's Day sensory bucket set filled with green and gold stuff from all over the house (balls, necklaces, books, a snake, letters for the work 'Luck', a rattle, drink stirrers) and added some Mardi Gras coins, dollar store St. Patrick's Day buttons and tattoos.  Toddler Turkey Feathers thoroughly enjoyed exploring all the little items.  He was wonderful at removing the balls from the other 'stuff' and dividing them back and forth between the baskets.  My goal is to have him be able to separate the items by color, size, object, etc...






Additional (A) related news, he had his Cardiologist appointment this week and all was well.  He does have a heart murmur, but it is considered an innocent murmur meaning that his heart beats to the tune of a different drummer and nothing else.  Doc said "If he wants to be an Olympic athlete, let him.  The murmur means nothing."  With his energy level, daredevilisms, and athleticism, he ought to be an Olympic athlete.  I wasn't terribly worried to begin with, but it's still relieving to hear.  Yay!
