I haven't written in a while because life's been so busy since the school year started again. The holidays are always so different than January. As soon as Eric returned to school he found out he would be teaching an additional class, government. He has also had to take a larger role in the chapel program at school. Other than these changes we've just gone back to the routine: work, school, preschool, eating, sleeping, grading, etc. This is also a time of year when we get lots of new members so our lives also include lots of airport runs, showing people around the city, looking at new houses, used cars, etc.
The above pics is of Gabe with his very favorite toy, Chang. Gabe has discovered what fun it can be to have a mute friend. One of Gabe's notable characteristics is a desire to control conversation completely. He is always telling Eric, me & his friends exactly the words he wants us to say in a conversation with him. Eric & I oblige sometimes and his friends occasionally, but Chang (the elephant) always says exactly what Gabe wants him to say even if his voice does sound remarkably like Gabe's. Because of his excellent conversational skills, Gabe & Chang are inseparable these days.

He reminds me of Nathan. He always had his animals. Remember Dondor. In fact, he just recently allowed me to throw some of them away.
Not the dog! Did you thow away the dog? Oh, man.
What happened to Gabe's white elephant? Was the hole in his mouth is undoing?
Yes, the hole in his mouth was irreparable. We told Gabe he needed a vacation.
Nathan,
I haven't thrown anymore animals away since you were here and said it was okay.
