We were welcomed home to the airport by over 100 people awaiting our arrival. She greeted everyone there. I was so impressed by her social skills at that moment. When we left, she wanted to know where her house was, she stared out the car window the entire time. When we arrived home, she was all smiles. She opened every door, closet, and stared at everything. It was such a joy to watch her discover everything including the pictures on the wall.
Some favorites: bananas- I've found banana peels everywhere including her room and the backyard, spaghetti with lots of sauce, french fries with lots of ketchup, chick fil a nuggets, popsicles, eggs, toast with butter and jelly, cereal of any kind, KFC slaw, orange juice,bath time, the balloon people outside and ice cream, especially birthday cake, eventhough she first spit the sprinkles in the floor. Some dislikes: green beans, mashed potatoes, cheese, olives, any kind of sandwich meat, and the cold weather.
She has been a joy in everyway. She sleeps 10-11 hours a night, when she gets stress, she wants to sleep. 30 minutes at Walmart was more than enough. We did leave with 3 boxes of cereal and a Rapunzel doll though. Garage saling was fun. It was a joy to watch her purchase a pink purse, and a new bicycle. It was a real learning experience for her to purchase her own items. Apparently bicycle in creole is bacon. Mwen vle bacon means, I want to go outside and ride my bike NOT I want to eat bacon! It took a while to figure that one out. She has slept with Savanna, Emma or us everynight. Emma seems to be winning out more than the rest of us. She goes to Emma's ballgames and sits and watches patiently. She buckles her self into the car. She loves watching Dora and Disney movies. She absolutely loves the trampoline. Sparkly clothes and headbands are always a preference over ones that aren't sparkly.
We are so blessed.
