:) We had a rough week but things are getting better. I came down with a bug and have had a cough and sore throat but I am feeling better today. Didn't get to hug Ethan much but will make up for it when the cold is gone. Didn't want him to catch it. My husband had three cysts removed from his face and neck yesterday (Friday). He is doing well although the wounds are sore. It was a long week at work. A co-worker passed away after a long bout with cancer. We were all sad to lose her. Ethan is doing very well. He has been happy and playful. He has been playing with a plastic Lightening McQueen car that Christa got for Christmas a couple of years ago. He loves it. He presses the buttons over and over. He doesn't let it finish what it is saying before he presses the button again so you hear "Lightning...", "Lightning.." about a thousand times in a row. It is so cute. He did well at therapy this week. He stacked the rings on the stacker. Sounds small but they were happy to see him able to do this. They have a nickname for him. "Little Engineer" because he has to inspect everything before he plays with it. They had a poster on the wall with pictures for him to look at and point to, but before he would do that, he pulled the poster off the wall and looked behind it thoroughly. He is something else. I smile everytime I think of him doing these things. That's about it. We are enjoying a lazy, rainy Saturday afternoon. We just had a rain shower. May go shopping later this evening for Father's Day next weekend and get out a little bit with my daughter, Christa. She seems like she needs some Mommy time.
