Music?

Ok, so we’ve been super busy around here lately.  We were planning to put our house up for sale in May and then my husband got the brilliant idea to have it ready by the time of the community garage sale!  When meant that we had three weeks to finish everything!  It’s been a long exhausting “sprint”, but we are finally done and our house is up!  I actually have one more thing to tackle…but have to wait until the weather cooperates.

Anyway…during our “sprint” towards the “finish” I’ve been painting two bedrooms and the living room and hallway.  Well the story I have to share today about Luke happened while I was doing all this painting.  No…Luke didn’t get into any paint…thankfully!!  But he did show me he was capable of some good OT skills!

While doing all this painting I used a radio with a CD player to keep me company.  I would leave this in the room I was working in, so I didn’t have to haul it all over the place all the time.  I thought this was brilliant, unitl one day I was down the hall (not sure what I was doing) and it was quiet and then all of a sudden music started playing!  I couldn’t figure it out.  Then I remembered the Radio/CD player in our bedroom and went to “investigate”.  Low and behold, there was Luke sitting right next to the radio/CD player smiling really big at me.  It was like he said “look what I can do mommy?!”  I just laughed and asked how in the world he did that.  It was then that I remembered that I had my “CD” on pause while I did some other things in the other room. 

Luke obviously didn’t like the quiet and wanted some music!  Not only that, but I soon realized that not only did Luke start the music, but he must not have liked the song because he skipped a couple to get to the current one!  Silly little man!

After this day, I caught him a couple more times trying to do this little “trick”.  One day he even paused the music and changed the volume for me!
