Today we went to the mall on a mission. I had planned to buy a shop for a cause ticket at Macy's. I also wanted to buy the Askate tote bag from the Vans store.
Both support Autism.
We also went to Sephora.
Rowan has never been able to even get through the door at Sephora without using a meltdown. This is because he has sensory problems. Sephora had bright lights, loud music, a hustle and bustle of awesome people, and an array of smells. Today was the first time he went in and remained calm. In fact, we were there for quite awhile. My older daughter was learning about her skin and make up and bought some too. We went to the play area. After that we headed out. .. but we had to stop and talk to a lot of friends at Macy's. He usually doesn't handle that well either. Today he was perfect. He even spoke to and looked at people. My little man is growing up. Today was a success!
