A partir de: The 4th of July with Luke and Nate It was the morning of the 4th of July. The sun was shining, and little Nate, who was 2 years old, was sitting on the living room floor. He was pushing his Thomas the Tank Engine trains and hugging his soft toy, Doggy One. Luke, his big brother who was 4 and has autism, was running happily in the garden. Luke loved to feel the wind on his face and splash water with his blue bucket. Every time water spilled on the grass, he laughed loudly. Their mom, Katie, and dad, Matt, were busy getting ready for the special day. They put up red, white, and blue balloons in the living room and set the table for lunch. “Grandpa Charlie and Grandma Fran are coming soon,” Katie said with a smile. Nonto, their Au pair, came to help. “Luke, do you want to help me fill the water table?” she asked. Luke clapped his hands and followed her. Together, they poured water into the table and watched it shine in the sun. Soon, Grandpa Charlie and Grandma Fran arrived. “Happy 4th of July!” they cheered. Nate ran to Grandma Fran with Doggy One. “Doggy One says hello!” Nate said. Grandma Fran laughed and gave Nate a big hug. Luke ran around Grandpa Charlie, who was holding a little flag. “Careful, Luke!” Matt said gently. Luke smiled and kept running in circles. At lunchtime, everyone sat inside the house. They had juicy hamburgers, hot dogs, and sweet lemonade. Nate tried to feed Doggy One a tiny piece of bread. “Doggy One doesn’t eat that, silly!” Luke giggled. After lunch, Luke and Nate played together in the garden. Nate made a train track on the grass, and Luke helped by putting the pieces in a long line. Nate pushed Thomas and Percy along the track. “Choo choo!” he said. Luke clapped every time the trains rolled by. Later, Luke ran to the sprinkler and played in the water. He laughed and twirled around, loving every drop. Nate watched and tried it too, but just for a moment. Nate liked being near Luke, even if he didn’t love getting wet. As the sky got darker, everyone brought blankets outside to the garden. Nonto shared cookies, and Grandpa Charlie told a story about when Katie was a little girl. Nate sat on Katie’s lap, hugging Doggy One close. Then, the fireworks started. Boom! Crackle! Bright colors lit up the sky. Luke’s eyes sparkled, and he jumped up and down with excitement. “I love the fireworks!” Luke shouted. Nate pointed too. “Look, Doggy One! Red and blue!” Luke clapped and giggled at every new firework. He wasn’t scared at all. Nate hugged Katie and whispered, “So pretty!” When the fireworks ended, Luke was still smiling. Nate yawned and leaned against Matt. “That was the best day,” Nate said sleepily. “Yes, it was,” Katie said softly. “Happy 4th of July, my loves.” Luke hugged Nate, and together they went inside, ready for bedtime after a wonderful day with family.
