Counting Down

We are only about 2 weeks away from our big move back to the US. I can't believe the movers are coming in 1 week. I have not even really begun to prepare...although I am a purger by nature, so I don't have a lot of clutter around the house. It is going to be difficult to decide what toys to ship, since most of our items won't arrive for about 8 weeks. Toy selection is of utmost importance for our 2 months living in a temporary apartment.

We are all doing well. The kids and I can't seem to shake a cold that has been passed around the 3 of us for a few weeks now. We have spent much of this beautiful week indoors. Although I am determined to get out and enjoy the sunshine tomorrow. It is rarely warm enough for fountain and wading pool play, so we must take advantage of the opportunity.

I have noticed another change in Waverly. She seems to be having more difficulty speaking and her speech is more strained. She is trying to say something, but the clarity is fading. She really seems to be struggling to get the word out. I have get the video camera out!! I need to tape her more!!

As I have said in my last few posts, this week has just been more difficult than usual for us. The move back home will be an emotional one.
