Matthew's first day back .................at daycare.

His day started off peachy! Then he was dropped off........oh boy! I knew he'd start pitching a fit. (Last week, we had to pick up Rebecca early, so we went to Matthew's class to see his little friends and his teacher. Well, crying commenced immediately!! He hugged momma's neck like nobody's business. He didn't want to go back. Well............he did that for daddy.) Daddy said he put up a fuss for about 5 minutes. He's never really done this before. Actually? If you think about it, this is a VERY good thing. He recognizes that Mommy and Daddy are definitely HIS parents and is very attached to us! *good thing*

Matthew said he had a good day yesterday and that he had fun. (and used the potty) YEAH!!!!!!!!!!! He learned how to drink from a straw last Saturday! So quickly after his surgery too!!!! Interesting! It took him awhile to figure it out, but he did. We were in Annapolis. I was teaching him and then Rebecca showed him. About 5 minutes later, as we were driving to the Eastern Shore, we hear, MOMMA? DADDY? Matthew's drinking from a straw! GOOD BOY! hehehehe....*s* Gotta hand it to momma becca. Sure enough, he was drinking from a straw. Gosh it makes life better!!!

NO MORE SIPPY CUPS! They are a thing of the past. Not only because of the sutures in his mouth (which are disappearing), but because he can drink from a straw now. Matthew calls them "baby cups". Can you believe we will celebrate his FIRST birthday here in the states in November!?!?!?! He wants a BACKYARDIGANS birthday party. I thought it would be Spiderman, but nope. 3 years old!!!! WOW!!!!

Next year, Rebecca will go to Kindergarten and the year after, Matthew will go to Kindergarten and Becca will go to first grade! Life is flying by! I tell ya!!!

**Pray for us as our family goes through some major transitions......we need confirmation on several areas of what to do, where to go, etc.** Thank you. Sorry to be so clear as mud, but once things start happening, we'll post it and you'll see what we meant! :o)
