We spent another night in the ER this week, our third with you, Jo. (We’ve yet to take your sister. <knocking on wood>) You had a barky cough and were having a hard time breathing again. After the last time when I was scolded by the nurses for not bringing you in sooner (I didn’t know! :(), I didn’t want to take any chances… so 2am, it was you and me, buddy, heading down the hill. We got out of there around 7am I think. You were fine. Better safe than sorry.
Adela, you are supremely into coloring these days. You color EVERY day. You love it. So, you were wide-eyed with wonder when I revealed this coloring sheet (crinkled backdrop paper I would have otherwise thrown away). You and your brother had fun coloring all over the floor. You’ve become quite the little artist, staying inside the lines and thoughtfully drawing and creating your pictures and projects. You have an art project bin now. I’ll put random paper, googly eyes, stickers, paint, glue, scissors, and other craft supplies in it and let you create whatever you like. It’s pretty neat. I need to take a picture…. writing that down right now so I don’t forget.
Josiah, you now call all emergency vehicles, “woowee woowee” (make it sound like a siren). It’s adorable. You are also a big dancer. I love to see you bob your head whenever you hear a good beat. And for some reason, you especially like the ABC song. I sing it to at naptime and you think it’s the greatest. Lately you’ve been saying “Siah sees…. <moon, truck, car, train,birds>” a lot. You love to point out things to us. I also think it’s cute and interesting that you call yourself “Siah”. We call you “Siah” but not more than we call you Jo, JoJo, Josiah John, Bear, Bear Claw, Bubba, SiahSon, and probably a half dozen others. You picked “Siah” as the one that defines you.
The end of the week left us getting read to go to the beach. Our camper has missed us. Hurray for camping!
