Playing in my head

Clair’s mind is so busy. She talks often and thinks always. She has triple focusing because her thoughts get away from her. 

Last night I came into the bathroom to check on her after about 10 minutes to find she hadn’t done much. I try to talk to her about staying focused and she proceeds to tell me that she has gotten lost in her head, playing and she is sorry. 

😂

I ask her to explain. She says that she likes to play games in her head and it’s fun to imagine different things happening. 

She has this same problem going to sleep. We were talking this morning about why she has trouble falling asleep. I’m snuggling her on the couch. She picks up here hand and holds it beside her head and moves it swiftly across in front of her face and to the other side of her head when exclaiming that’s ideas just come flying in and distract her from getting to sleep. 

I love this kiddo. I’m sorry I afflicted her with this condition and I understand it.
