We need to be there by 9:30 AM and her surgery is at 10:30 AM.  Ella is off at school and a friend has graciously agreed to meet her at our house when Ella gets home around 11:30 AM.

Justice will be hanging out with dad at the outpatient center while Bonnie undergoes her procedure.

Please keep Bonnie in your prayers.  I’ll try to keep folks updated here.  If you want an email, sign up for email updates in the top left column or use the form below in this post.

Ella for the first time in a long time cried when I left for work today.

When getting to work I learned it was the annual “Take Your Kid To Work Day.” While this is a program for kids that are between 12 and 18, I figured 1.) Ella needed a bit more “Dad Time” and 2.) It’s never too early for her to learn the “biz.”

So I called Bonnie and had her bring Ella to my office. She spent a couple of hours with me and seemed to have a great time!  She hung out at my table while I worked and then made the “rounds” in the office giving “knuckles” to everyone.

We have also been having a weekly “daddy/daughter” lunch. She seems to enjoy it.  She merrily sits next to me as she eats her cheese quesadilla at Qdoba all the while pointing at various things and asking “What’s that?”  As she almost always already knows the answer, I think she’s using it as a way to have a conversation as she’s still not speaking many words.  All in all, it’s a great time for everyone, including Bonnie as she seem to like having one less kid in tow while running errands during our lunch.

She is such a blessing to me. (I am happy to say that I can say that about both Bonnie and Ella!)

With Ella’s “bubbles” it’s easy not to see past that (especially for Ella as it’s partially blocking her vision).  However Ella has developed her own personality and sense of humor.

By example, a few weeks ago we were working on potty training (she has the peeing on command down but not the asking nor the #2 aspects) and she has a habit to want to “spin” the toilet paper roll and see how much spools out.  She started to reach for it and I firmly told her; “Ella, we don’t touch the toilet paper until we are done going potty.”  She pulled back her hand and then got a smirk, flattened out her hand and held it about and 1/8″ from the roll and then looking up at me started smiling.  Of course I started laughing and said; “I’m not touching!” and we both roared in laughter.  Of course, now that’s part of the routine.  “I’m not touching” emminates from the bathroom a lot nowadays.  Of course if strangers are in our house, they will be mightly confused!
