Home for Five Days Now

It's been a difficult but getting easier five days home. Both Josh and I have been much better. Our colds combined with jet lag really knocked us down, but Matt took care of everything while we were sick. This is how Josh spent the first 36 hours home, comatose of the floor. The poor guy was knocked out by his cold and jet lag.

When Josh finally awakened he went for his first ride on a "fire truck."


After Josh rejoined the living, he was a grouchy bear for the next two days. We threatened to send him back to China in a FedEx box, but he liked the idea, as you can see. That threat did no good at all.

Josh would like to send a big thank you to the Hoppe's for his new wooden fire truck.
He loves it.

Josh is already sporting his fire department issued shirt. Matt plans on picking up an application for him very soon.

On Thursday Josh got to meet his Aunt Lisa and cousins Marianna and Alex. The three of them had a great time playing together. Josh was totally exhausted after all the romping around.

Josh's cousin, Marianna, took him on his first horse back ride. He loved it. He even went for another ride when Grandma and Grandpa Dunham got to the house.

Tomorrow will be another day of romping with the cousins for Josh and then Saturday while be his BIG coming home party. I just found out that my aunt and uncle from Georgia will be coming into town Saturday, so they will get to meet him sometime in the next few days.

Love to all,

Matt, Jenny and Josh
