April 20, 2011


Wednesday:

Liam had the best day grocery shopping today and met H-E-Buddy. I was wondering how he would react to a grown man sized plush grocery bag with arms and very large eyes, but Liam was quite entranced. His eyes locked on the walking brown paper bag and I could just pass by without letting Liam get out to meet him. There was a group of seven or eight year old kids on a field trip, but that didn't matter. Liam presented no hesitation to reach out and wave vigorously at H-E-Buddy. He waved back and Liam's face lit up. I let him out of the cart to go say 'hi' and he walked right over, H-E-Buddy was nice enough to separate himself from the bigger kids, crouch down to Liam's height and reach out his arms and welcome Liam with a big hug. He gave him a high five, and the one more hug good-bye so we could go check out our groceries. At the check out, Liam was given 4 Buddy Bucks, since he said 'please' then ended up getting a 20 point and two 50 point stickers and one Instant Winner! We went to get his prize which was a set of 5 stretchy bracelets of different shapes one being a kite, another a boat, a bike, a sun, and Liam's favorite, and H-E-Buddy shape.
