I made the mistake of telling Dylan that we were going to Disneyworld a few months ago. At first, he didn't really understand. It wasn't a big deal. Then as Disney movies started to come on and they showed Cindrella's castle, I would say look Disneyworld. While he still didn't really have a clue what it was. He knew it was something magical. Then it started..."Now? Now?" "Now what baby?" Now, we go to Disneyworld? "No, not now." This went on for 2 months I would say. One day I picked him up from school and this line of questioning started. When I pulled into our garage, he lost it...."no, no disneyworld". Just a short bit into this craziness, I realized that I should make a "Days til Disney" calendar and let him visually see how many more days until we left. He may have not gotten the concept fully but the questions seem to simmer down a bit. Everyday, he got to put a sticker on the calendar. Then when it got close enough, we started counting down the blank days. Today, He got to put on his last sticker. Our plan is to drive half the way, spend the night and drive the rest of the way on Saturday. We are really looking forward to our trip as we are going with some really good friends who have boys. They are going to have a blast.
