Addison's take on Therapy

Dear World,

I have therapy 4 times a week. One might say that I need the extra help, and I let the world think that. Truth is? I let my influence brighten more days by allowing the presence of these 4 extra people in my house every week. It's truly an act of kindness on my part.

When these therapists come, I teach them how to read what the card REALLY says:

I cuddle if they look a bit blue:

I provide comic relief:

I throw a "look who's getting the attention now" look at little brother

I walk circles around my black boxes and rearrange the therapist's hair as I pass by (why have they all started wearing high buns???):

I imitate their extreme facial motions to help them feel better about themselves:

I consult my notes to see what else I have planned for the day:

and make sure that everyone present understands what those plans are:

I quite casually show off my brilliance and wait for the gasps that I know are coming:

I give courtesy smiles:

and request pick ups:

Yep, therapy these days is a highlight for everyone involved. It's all part of my plan.

love,

Addison
