Nap time break March 25th

It is a gorgeous sunny day, maybe a little hot for my taste.  Ritesh had a harder night last night, I think that the medicine may be bothering him a little.  He is such a good sport about taking it.  Sadly, we both are coughing with sore throat.  The pollution here doesn't help much.

Today we had our first toddler tantrum.  I dared to take a pen away from him.  Both mad and clearly tired.  fortunately I was able to ease him after his anger subsided and rock him off to sleep... entering motherhood at this stage of life will definitely be interesting.  He is no push over.

Oh... my time is cut short.  He just woke up.  Fortunately I got a shower in.

Thanks for all of the encouragement and support.  It is a big help.

Bill leaves tomorrow.  He has been staying just one floor below us, so has continued to be a daily presense and huge huge help.  He will have to win the award for his patience and generosity during our entire stay.  He even went back to the children's home yesterday again to play music with the children.  Being a lone is going to be more challenging.

  1. Oh get used to those trantrums :) Zachary had one this morning when I took a pen away from him before we left the house. Hope the medicine doesn't bother him too much but then he'll feel much better. I'm so excited you're coming home early! Can't wait to see you both! Where are the pictures you promised?? Love you, Julie

  2. Wow! A lot of news the last couple days! Love all the details. I sure hope the medicine works. He'll start to shoot up then. Your dad says hi and lots of love. We are together with Dan and Heather.

  3. I was on drugs for giardia years ago, and the side effects actually made me sicker than the giardia, so he could be feeling rather awful. The tantrum may be a good sign that he's feeling comfortable enough with you to express himself, although I'm sure that's not how it felt at the time. Waiting anxiously for pictures...
