Lucas Camilo

Despite a bit of a cold, Lucas was very excited to go to school yesterday in costume!

Lucas had fun showing off his costume to his teachers, and during physical therapy he did some extra dinosaur spins in his power wheelchair.  He came home and got rested up before heading out for a trip around the block to trick-or-treat with the neighbors.  Since Lucas doesn’t eat candy, the whole “trick-or-treat” part of Halloween was new.  But we figured we’d give it a go, since the social interaction part of the knocking on doors could be fun for him.  We did just a couple dress rehearsals, then started with our next door neighbor.  Dave opened the door, and we all paused.  We gave the “what-do-you-say” prompt, and Lucas said, “I love you Dave!”

He eventually got the ritual down.  A box of Lemon Heads  were his favorite (“it looks like a yellow rectangle!”), since if you shake the box they double as an instrument.
