We will catch up with some entries coming in the next few days.
Today we visited Nathan at his foster home and tagged along with him
to his pre-school class. We played outside for a bit and then had
lunch. He has a huge appetite and he loves spicy food, I think he eats
more than me. We had a 1.5 hr drive there and on the way back Nathan
fell asleep and he was just very interested in the cars and buildings
that we passed. Isabel was trying a lot to get Nathan's attention by
tickling him and playing with him. They blew bubbles in the bathroom
when we got back to the hotel, they really play well together so far.
Isabel has been fantastic through all of this, she has been a real
inspiration for me. She assumed the big sister role immediately and
has been so enthusiastic during the day. It is amazing she has
adjusted to the time change. She relishes all the attention she has
been getting when we walk down the street, she waves at everyone. It
is interesting to see the people smile at Isabel.
We had dinner tonight at a restaurant and I was amazed that Nathan
already has his own personality, I guess I never though about his
personality before. He lets you know when he does not
like something or if your taking too long to cut up his food.
Kelly will be giving many more details if this works.
