OK
Charis just recently started saying “OK” when we ask her questions (actually, she just says “K”, and it’s kind of cute). She’s been able to say “no” for quite a while (and know that it means), but now that she is saying “K”, you can actually find out what she wants (most of the time). That’s a huge step forward, as far as I’m concerned. In the cases where she can’t actually say what she wants, Joy and I can usually ask a few questions and figure it out:
Do you need your diaper changed? “No”
Do you want some water? “No”
Do you want some milk? “K”
The only problem is in situations like this:
Do you want to go night-night? “No”
So in that case, we usually re-phrase the question to be “Do you want to go get your guys?” (her guys are her stuffed animals that she loves very much and that she always sleeps with at night). That usually gets a “K” response, which is surely a sign that it’s time for bed!

Type Faster
I have to get one of these. This is a USB device that you hook up to your computer and the faster you type, the faster the hamster wheel spins. Too cool!

We’re Number One
If you search for “cardboard animals” on Google, guess what the number one link is? That’s right! It’s my blog posts about all of the cardboard animal construction we did at work a couple of years ago. It’s about time, too. I’ve been in the top ten for quite a while, but I finally outplaced a few other sites about making small scale animal cutouts out of cardboard. :-)

Thought Of The Week
“I have chosen you for my very own
Since the dawn of time I have known
That you would be standing by my side
Spotless, clean, holy, shining bright
Hear your Lord, O chosen one
You are the apple of my eye
Know that my heart burns for you
You are the reason I died
So that we could be together
Every day, in the Father’s love
So that we could live forever
Walking through eternity as one
My bride”
(from the song “I Have Chosen You” from Vineyard Music)

Catching Up
Last Friday I was able to meet a couple of people from my old job for lunch. It was really great to see them and catch up with each other a little bit. I really do like my new job a lot, but I also miss the people from my old place. I guess that’s normal if you work at a place for that many years. Anyway, we met at Fuddruckers for lunch and had a nice little visit over some tasty food. So thanks to Carrie and JP for meeting me, because I really enjoyed it!
