Wow, time flies whether you're having fun or not. Tomorrow (Sunday) marks one year since we flew out of Haiti with J. That was quite monumental after four years of waiting to bring him home. We didn't get to Atlanta until about 2:30 a.m. on the 30th due to plane trouble and we drove home on the 30th from Atlanta (it was much cheaper flying out of Atlanta last minute than Nashville and we stayed at Mrs. H's so she got to meet J). So much has happened in a year's time and J has come such a long way. He is still very emotionally immature but there is definite improvement.
Last night there was an open house at my parent's for Mr. C from Haiti and J was playing with his best buddies and they were secret agents. He told everyone that he was "double agent, double twice" and that they looked suspicious. At least he can say that now as he used to say "suspicioush".
J put an egg in the toaster this morning. He thought it might cook faster so he spread it on a piece of bread and put it in the toaster. Sigh...we had to open the windows to air things out and now he needs to clean the toaster. I wish he wouldn't act on all the crazy ideas that enter his mind.
He calls ninja "linja". You can correct him but he goes right back to it. He also uses said and told interchangeably-"She didn't said me move or not'ing."
A is house/cat sitting. So far, so good. She called me this morning and asked how to pump gas at Wal-mart. Um, flip the thing up and pump. I think she was unsure of how to pay with cash, if you had to pay first and then pump or how it worked. Funny.
She sprained her ankle Wed. evening but it's better today and not looking so much like a "cankle" (where the calf of the leg flows right into the ankle without definition). She had some bluish coloring on the lower side of it yesterday.
I got my new contact prescription yesterday. It always costs more than they tell you up front. Why is that? I like the contacts for now. We'll see.
