Inquiring Minds Want to know...

YEE HAW, we received a monthly update with a bunch of pictures of our sweet boy yesterday afternoon.  We had submitted our "5 questions" last month and got these answers with our update.  We are still waiting on the most current height/weight and growth stuff.  Apparently, they were running behind on that and we were told they'd send that to us when it arrives.

BUT ... because inquiring minds want to know.  This is what we learned today about you, Little "Z".


1. What is Z's disposition and personality? Is he happy, cry often, compliant or strong
willed?

Z is happy most of the time but cries sometimes when he is inconvenienced. 

2. What is Z daily schedule?

He wakes up around 6:30 in the morning, has breakfast at 7:00-7:30am. He plays until 
8:30 am when he attends nursery class. At 10:30 he has a snack break and then returns to 
class to play and learn. At noon he has lunch, and then will take a nap from 12:30-2:00pm. 
At 2:00 he attends educational play and at 4pm will have snacks then will go back to play. At 
6:00 pm he eats dinner and at 7:00 he will go to sleep. 

3. What soothes Z when his is upset, or how does he like to be comforted?

He soothes when he is held close and given toys. 

4. Does Z play with other children and have a special "playmate"?

He mostly play with all children but he is inclined to play with Bedilu. 
*note* I love this one!  Bedilu is the little boy of a friend that I met during this process.  I love her and her sweet hubby so this ones makes me giggle.  It also makes me a little sad ... Bedilu is awaiting Embassy Clearance and then will leave the TH.  Please pray for my little guy, he'll have to say good-bye to a special friend soon.  ;-(

5. Since he speaks Sidamo, is he able to communicate with the Nannies or is he learning Amharic
or English to communicate?

Now he is communicating in Amharic and he is also learning English in his nursery class. 
(Hmmmm, wonder how that is working for him?)

Prayer for today!  We have flights on hold but can't purchase them until we get approval from our agency.  I am not so patiently awaiting that approval as the flights keep changing prices ... and I don't want to delay and get smacked in the face with a huge price increase.  It happened yesterday to the first round we chose by the hundreds EACH ticket.  SO ... if your praying, today we need approval and flight purchase to take place.  THANK YOU!
