"Mom! I'm naked, ready for my bath!". It's 7:30 in the morning, I've barely begun to move and this child, this child who recoils in pain at the mere thought of a bath is naked and dancing happily about our small apartment looking for warm water and some soap. "Where is your sister?", as I groggily stretch out from under my warm comforter. "She's asleep, come on Mom, let's go!", more naked dancing, the neighbors must love this.
For five days they have been eagerly anticipating this day, starting each morning with "how many days today Mom?". Math not being their strong point right now we've had some whopping disappointments, Wednesday morning marked three days, as did Wednesday evening but when Thursday became the next day, it was confusing on a day to day basis. But today, today there was no confusion, today is the day we've been counting towards all week, today is Uncle Day.
Welcome, we're all so glad you are here.
