This morning as I was ready to leave for work, John asked for some milk (which is what he usually does when he's hungry). I went over to the fridge and opened the door, and he saw his sippy cup and said "Aha! I found the milk!" ha, where does he get these things?
Hanna woke up around midnight and fussed and cried a little bit. I went in there and held her, but she was squirming to lay down again. I patted her a bit, and she was clearly tired and was trying to go back to sleep, but would look at me once in awhile. When I left she stayed quiet and went back to sleep. I wonder if she is starting to have some grieving. John did a month or two after he had been home, so I've been looking for signs from her. She has been more fussy lately, and acting more like a two yr old. (She'll do the lay on the floor and cry and kick thing). But, hard to tell if that is just normal toddler behavior, or if this is all her way of adjusting to her new home and realizing she won't be going back to the orphanage.
I got John a Gordon engine and coal car for his birthday, to add to his collection of Thomas trains. John likes saying "Gordon, number 4!" Rhonda is going to have a little party for him in a Blaine park on Thursday, with a couple of her friends and their kids (just a couple or so). So, I'll go up there on my lunchhour so I can participate!
