It's not that I don't have time to write, Oliver and Jim go to bed at 7:30 and 8:30, I've got time. It's a matter of not knowing what to write. I mean do you really care that I fed him two very sticky, high fiber pop tarts (they take longer to eat than cheerios and it's what I had in my bag) to get him to sit through an entire church service and paid for it the next day? Is it exciting to you that Oliver thinks the dust buster vacuum is the greatest invention and waddles around the kitchen cleaning up my cookie baking messes until the battery dies and then he screams? Eventually he gets over the dust buster and moves on to the broom. It won't be long before he breaks a window with the broom handle.

I measured my ponytail the other day, 14 inches! By this time I'm usually crazy about getting it cut off but, for now, I'm enjoying it. Maybe I'll donate it in the fall as I believe you must not have bob length hair in the summer, that's way too hot. Getting a trim next week as the ends are a bit, well crunchy.

Happy One Monthiversary of busting out of the orphanage!! I wonder, does he think about the orphanage? Does his miss hearing Russian (besides the 5 words I use)? Does he miss all the kids?
