The $50 Pillow

A mama logs onto to a sensory store.

She purchases a vibrating pillow. 

A calming strategy for her son's anxiety.

She excitedly checks her porch daily for the $50 tool to help her baby King.

She imagines her son calming himself on the couch.

It arrives.

She stabs her scissors into the packaging.

She can't wait to see her baby King's reaction.

She hands it to him.

He laughs.

He's interested for about a minute.

He chucks it onto the couch and runs away.

Two hours later, her daughter curiously sits on it.

"Hey mama, this feels good on my big butt AND my little butt! YAH!"

"That's nice, Lily!"

....I guess we all got our own sensory needs...

...I want my $50 bucks back...
