Quick Recovery
Joshua got a bad case of food poisoning yesterday. We were coming home from grocery shopping in the afternoon, and he vomitted his lunch all over the dorm hallway, and then continuously for the next 2 hours. He was tired, wanted us to hold him, but so brave. When the wretching would start, he would just bend over and puke, even when there was nothing left. No cries. But just as soon as it came, it went away. He fell asleep at the regular time without dinner, and woke up this morning a happy camper, and ate like a horse today.

What's that noise?
I was watching Joshua as he was falling asleep the other nite, when he heard a noise, and suddenly stood up and asked sleepily: "What's that noise, hmmm, hmmm, hmmm, hmmm, hmmm, hmm?" and then fell back asleep.
He seems to be enjoying playing with his new friend Evan at Bible Study every Wednesday nite. Carmen also says he sat through all of story time at the library today, and even danced at music group earlier this week. It seems he is starting to blossom socially this week.
We went to Wingaersheek Beach again this Wednesday. It was a surprise because I thought summer was over, but the temps hit the 90's so we hit the beach! The showers were closed, so I ended up washing Josh in the beach bathroom sink. Joshua ate sandwiches after climbing up the rock like a big boy. He wants to do a lot of things, "by self!" these days. He walked in the water all the way up to his chin, and gulped the salty water a couple of times, but it didn't phase him. When he's done at the beach, he tells me he is ready to go "home."

4. says his clothing preferences: "red shirt" "yellow fish bib"
5. sits on his tricycle, but no pedaling yet.
6. counts spontaneously to 10, sometimes 11
7. knows ending to many sentences in his books (Little Miss ____)
8. likes to bat balloons with his fan
9. recognizes many letters "B, O, H, M, E, A, X, C, T, J, S"
10. skipping his milk, more finicky eater, and getting skinnier
