We are so excited for a group of people with whom we waited for so long. Our original log in date with the CCAA was March 13, 2006. That date finally received their referrals today and we couldn't be happier for all of them. We are praying for them as they take the next steps of preparation to travel and meet their children.
On the home front, Jadon spent some time this morning watching Sesame Street, playing with train, de-potting a plant, and using sidewalk chalk. The afternoon was spent watching Alan's dentist appointment and telling us that he doesn't need to go to the dentist, playing "Star Wars" (sort of) on the Wii, finding some old toys and some creative ways to use them, playing cards with mom (and having the game end after he cheated with a war), and telling us that he was hungry. After dinner it was off to the playground at the school and home for short game and bath and bed.
Everyday Jadon picks up a few more English words. This is helpful, but we need to remember that he has only been here a week and that this is going to take some time. He definitely knows more English than we know Mandarin though.
Ruth's voice improved slightly today since she was trying to avoid using it when she could. She continues to battle fatigue even with sleep. So, it is off to bed now with hopes of a good night's rest and some more energy tomorrow.
