John and Rose

This last Thursday and Friday, I helped babysit John and Rose for an hour or so each day. Rose wasn't feeling well on Thursday and slept most of the time. John and I played checkers (with instructions on how to let him win, if I wanted to), put a puzzle together and drew pictures. He sent the picture home with me, but asked Pubaa (sp?) if he could use his copier to make a copy for mommy and daddy.

On Friday, Rose was feeling better, but was still a bit tired from the day before. We snuggled in to watch Stuart Little and Rose crawled up on my lap and quickly fell asleep. Mom-mo (sp?) had said she didn't want her to take a long nap because she wouldn't sleep that night. So, after about 20 minutes I woke her up gradually. She is such a sweet little girl and rarely gets upset (at least the times I've been around her) and is generally laid back.

John is always entertaining and really seems to think about things and sort them out in his head. When I got ready to leave, I asked him to tell me how the movie ended when he saw me the next time. To which he replied, "But that might not be for a long time, and I won't remember by then." Out of the mouths of babes...

We hope David and Laurel had a good time in Savannah. We had a good time in Columbus!
