Rob made the drive home yesterday - 125 miles all by himself. He brought me a rose, and was grinning ear to ear! Last night after that drive I could tell he was tired. I'm not sure why he does this, but it seems he gets overtired - can't guage himself - to voluntarily take a nap. I sometimes have to point out to him that he seems tired. How he asks, do I know he is tired? Easily, by the way he talks. Seems his facial and tongue muscles get tired, and he has a much harder time pronouncing words. I know he realizes it, but for some reason doesn't always make the connection. I actually end up smiling when he is talking because he is just butchering so many words. I lose track of what he is saying, and seem more intent on how he is talking.... then I have to ask him to repeat himself - and around it goes. To improve his speech he reads the newspaper to me out loud in the car while I'm driving. Every once in a while a word comes out, that I don't understand and we'll laugh.
