Hello
Yes, it has been a while since my last post. I have been busy with midterms. I am extremely happy to report that my grades are good. I am so looking forward to Christmas break. Three weeks with no studies...
I have a few new photos of Ava. There is one of her and a worm. It may seem like any ordinary photo but it was a big step. She has been a bug killing machine this summer. Last week she and Jonah had a woolly worm. We all were playing with it and we let it go. She proceeded to stomp on it and proudly proclaim ,"I keeled it Mama!" I, being the super animal/creature freak, try to explain how sad it was that she did this. The only way I could get my point across was to say it can't go home to it's mommy now. Yes, I know I am extreme and I probably have scarred her for life. OK, so today she found a worm. She wanted me to pick it up. I said "Are you going to be gentle? Will you be nice to the worm?" She said she would. I pick it up and ask her if she would like to hold it. She says she is scared. I convince her that it will not hurt her. She lets it sit on her leg. She then want to hold the worm I place him (I think it is a him) in her palm. She then says,"let's put him down." I ask her if she is afraid and to remember to be nice." She says, "No, I not 'fraid. I want him down to see his mama." I think I really did get through to her. I hope she isn't too emotionally damaged...
