Life goes on...

While trying to bring Andie up to date on current events my parents were quizzing her yesterday. When asked who the president is she said "Obrak, and He's not respectable!" Sometimes she comes out with sentences and phrases that have meaning but most times she just mixes her words all over the place. She is set to get the trach tube taken out next Thursday morning. That should make communication easier for her - easier for her to get the words out and hopefully the words will all start making more sense soon.

In other news: Since the weather's been nice ( in the high 50s) my boys have been able to play outside in the evenings when there's nothing else on their agenda. Josh is on this kick where he wants to be a goalie so he puts on pads and does stretches... and ruined a pair of sneakers by wearing holes in the toes. A few neighborhood girls came by the day before last and played with them in our driveway and then yesterday they waited and waited for them to come back again. At one point Dima came in and asked if we could call them to find out where they were. They didn't come back so the two of them played their own games of hockey until dinnertime.

Josh had a play date yesterday morning while a friend and I caught up on what's going on with each other. We let the kids play upstairs while we talked in their kitchen and other than one interruption to ask permission to have a piece of gum they did well. (Josh spit it back out as soon as the "juice" was out of it.) When we went upstairs to tell them it was time to go they had dressed up - she was in a princess gown and Josh had on a firefighter jacket - it was really cute. Well, I still had to get him back here and give him lunch before school and while he was eating I asked him about what went on while they were playing together. Then as we talked more he told me that they had smooched once on the lips cause they were pretending they were married! Oh, geeze!
Life goes on...
