I brought over paints and paint brushes for Michael so he can paint his birdhouse. I brought different colors and he said he wanted red and blue. I asked him if he was going to make a 4th of July birdhouse, he said he was. 
He was all smiles as he was doing it. He ended up choosing

a couple more colors to paint it. We let it dry and went up to lunch, he was telling me that the girl up at the front desk wanted to see it. He was in a hurry to get back to his room. He picked up his birdhouse and took it right to the front desk and then he took it to the dining room and showed some people his birdhouse too. He is so proud of it! I love it! We went outside by his window and put it in the bush. That way he can see it and watch the birds. (When he was done with it, he said a couple of times "That looks alright, don't it?") I'm glad he liked this activity :)

When I came over, Michael was showing me his flowers. They died :( Maybe we put too much seeds in one pot? We'll have to get some flowers that are already grown. He had is dresser area all set up with his birdhouse on newspaper and a chair. He was already to start his project. It was cute but I had to explain that we are going to do it on Tuesday when we have a little more time. I like that he is excited about it! We worked on his exercises and a few words and then he went up to lunch.
