For the littles

We just got back from Thanksgiving. It was okay even though some of our other people didn't want to go. But we went cuz we bought five big bottles of soda and what else could we do with them. I am glad we went cuz we got to have chocolate ice cream. And Thanksgiving food of course.

And I texted our T and and said "Don't let the turkeys get you down." And I put three turkey emojis and said Happy Thanksgiving. Cuz she had to go even though she didn't want to. But she didn't text back yet.

Hi Joseph!

I'm not sure why I'm the only one who feels like talking today, but I'm glad you got chocolate ice cream and Thanksgiving food. We just had pecan pie, and we had a lot of turkey and all the other stuff. And the husband's family is really nice and smart and funny.

That's too bad your T had to go to a Thanksgiving she didn't want to go to. We didn't ask our T about who he has Thanksgiving with because probably only Oliver would want to know, but he has a wife and a son who's engaged, and somehow a granddaughter also, and I don't know who else, so they probably have Thanksgiving together. And he would probably tell us all about it if we asked, but we really don't need to know all those details. Well, I wouldn't mind, but I can feel that there are some people who would mind a lot. And some who miss him even though we saw him only two days ago.

Chocolate ice cream sound yummy.

Hi Joseph,

I'm glad you had Thanksgiving with chocolate ice cream. And I'm happy you wrote to all of us.

Hi Meredith,

It's really good you had a nice family to go to and good food.

There are too many people around so I can't come out. Host says to wait but I'm tired of waiting so I woke up early. Holidays are kind of a hard time for us but Iain says nothing bad's going to happen like before so I guess it's ok. I'm still kind of nervous.

I can't come out either because we're staying with friends for safety and it's making me sad, I only have a couple of minutes and it makes me nervous, Jen can't come out either and it's all Em and she's not doing well with it. I want to go home.

Hi Echo,

Sorry you're having a hard time. Hope you get to go home soon.

we went to the bigger city in the other state to see the new T. I was sooooo excited. we don't go to cities very often. L let me see all the shops and colors and the soap shop smelled like a LOT of soap! and then we went see the T lady. She has a magic ball and when we hold it it changes color. when L tried to be very calm it was green and when I said something it turned yellow and then Asti shhhhhhht me and it went all red. I am soooo excited that she has a ball that can show when we talk!!! next time we go there will be more lights and the christmas season will start and maybe we can have waffles. today L got us chocolate, a lot of chocolate, because it took half of the day to get to the T lady and back and she said that we did well with the ball exercise, it was a really hard one. i hope that all your difficult holidays are over really soon and then we make every day in winter a beautiful day with only nice people and waffles and hot chocolate.
(it was very difficult to be quiet for therapy. I am soooo excited!!)

Hi Maya,

That magic ball sounds really cool. And the soap store also. The hotel where we're staying has soap with a really nice smell. And it's great that you got a lot of chocolate!! Yum.

Your new T sounds really nice. Why did you have to be quiet? Is it to give others a turn and not take up the whole time?

It always seems to take US half of the day to see our T even though he's less than 40 miles away. But we like to make sure we won't be late, and then sometimes we're tired afterwards or want to write something, and we sit in the car for awhile, or we get lunch before we drive home in the traffic.

Hi Evan,

I don't know why Bobby still doesn't feel like talking. It's kind of like he doesn't want us to know how he's feeling, and if he writes to you, then we'll know.

I'm sorry you were feeling nervous yesterday. I hope today is better and you don't have to hide as much!

We're going for a walk soon with the husband--down a hill, and then shopping, and then back up the hill.

Meredith

I hopes you feel better soon Echo n that you get time to play.

Hi Meredith,

I'm sorry Bobby doesn't feel good. Thanks for telling us why he went away. I hope it's only for a little while because he's my friend and I really really like it when he writes. Please tell him HI for me ok?

Hi Maya,

Cool magic ball! Do you know how it works? I like chocolate a lot too.

Yesterday Host didn't have to work so we went for a trip! Colin drove us to a little town near our home. It wasn't far and we got to listen to the car stereo the whole way. Then we got to eat at a cool place and walk around. It's an old town so stuff is old and kind of different looking.

I'm trying really really hard not to be scared but I can't help it. Iain says I'm just remembering when things were bad and they're not anymore. I'm sorry I keep remembering the bad stuff and getting upset. I wish I had a magic ball that made everything better.
