Aaron visits and G is sweet!
I feel like today was a very important day. Not that anything really happened. It was more about what didn't happen. Gavin and Aaron seem to go through phases with each other. They're either best friends or mortal enemies, and the switch can occur from one to the other within mere moments. We've been through a rough patch recently with Gavin being a little mean to his younger cousin. How to handle it has been such a dilemma. I don't want G to think it is OK to hit or push his cousin. Or to take toys away from him. But I feel like in the process of trying to get him to stop, we've made Aaron a little overly sensitive. However, today was a great day. Aaron came over for an hour and a half, and there was hardly an incident. Gavin even offered up toys to Aaron without being prompted. The only minor incident was when G invited Aaron to come in to his bathroom with him and shut the door. The light was not on, and although G doesn't mind pitch black darkness, Aaron didn't seem quite as comfortable with it. It's probably too much to hope for that this detente will continue. But at least we had one fun, fuss-free play date!
