Okay, a little bit of a hiatus from the blog. Sara has been sick and we have been tending to that lately. She appears to have some virus in her intestines that makes her do things that...well, we won't share details. Let's just say that my stomach (Darren's) is getting hardened to a number of sights and smells at this point. Sara has completed her 2nd full week of being home with us rather than the ELC. I think she enjoys the quality time with Mom and Dad, but Mom and Dad would really like to go back to work...they actually enjoy their jobs, or at least feel some sense of duty to complete a few things before Christmas break. At this point, after 5 doctor visits and 2 4 hour sessions with an IV, we are basically just waiting for the virus to work itself out and monitoring Sara closely. We continue to pray for God's healing and timing with little Sara.
Kacy had her big 4th birthday. Pics and documentary evidence will be forthcoming as time permits. She is starting to get excited about Christmas and Santa coming. She had fun making some Christmas cookies with Mommy tonight. She is able to write almost all her letters now in upper case and most of them lower case, but not necessarily all. She does pretty good and we have been practicing when we can. She loves to color and dance and dress up.
Although Sara has been less active, she continues to develop verbally. She clearly says things like Daddee, Mama, Kacy, ball, doggie, hide, hi, bye-bye, cheese, out, and night-night among others. She has a word for her blanket, but it doesn't sound like blanket--more like Bilbo (from LOTR) but she knows what she means and is quite attached to it. You can ask her if she wants a food or something, and she will shake her head no if it is not wanted. She also directs you by pointing to where she wants to go and to desired foods.
