After fainting, Christine got up & took this photo

When presented with this plate, Aizay said, "I maybe love all of this." While that did turn out to be hyperbole, we are still pleased with his enthusiasm.

Slightly ill

Aizay woke up w a fever. Maybe that's why he wasn't in a partying mood last night...

Coraline is learning the alphabet

You want accurate?  Tough.  You'll have to settle for cute.

My five year old is a freak.

And I mean that in a good way. By the way I had to think about the middle equation...it was too hard.

Aizay learns a new word!

First a little background: Aizay calls me a scientist but is also confused that I work in a hospital and see "patients". Most of them are actually "research patients"...Yesterday, I told Aizay that because of the blizzard "my patients cancelled". He said worriedly, "Aren't they sick?" "No, they are not sick, they are deaf. They come to see me so I can learn more about how their ears work." My response was followed by much distress and anxiety. I thought he just didn't understand. Again I said something like "my patients are deaf, not sick".

"But they're death?"

Apparently Aizay thought that my patients would experience death if I didn't see them. Or perhaps he thought our research project studies how zombies hear...

I did finally get Aizay to understand what deaf means. I told him that deaf people have ears that don't work the way ours do and that they can hear very little or not at all.
