Michael's Open House

We had an open house today for
Michael. It was to celebrate his
GRCC graduation, his receiving his
green card and his enrolment at
Western Michigan University with
a full ride scholarship.
Grandma R made this quilt for Michael.
It's a fence rail pattern; in red, white
and blue.

This is Susan Reed, Michael's immigration attorney.
Susan works for Global Ministries, here is a local site.
Susan guided Michael's case through the morass
that our immigration system has become and
prevailed. THANKS SUSAN!!!!


Olympics Fever

L was with us overnight. She and M & Em
enjoyed a meal of Chinese food in honor of the
Olympics start.
Then we watched the opening ceremony.


The L's are really keyed up about something.
Not sure if it was the food or watching the
opening.

L tries some rice.

Listen close.....L is whistling.
She purses her lips, rolls her tongue and just whistles.

A Day Of Firsts

M came over while E and Checo went to see
the Batman Movie. M had a great 2 hour or so
nap and then had a job to do.
He helped Grandpa make banana bread and
lasagna.
Grandpa had things ready for M when he awoke
from his nap.

Another big first. M had his first "number one"
in our toilette after his nap.

M washes his hands after his triumph.

A sticker indicating M's success.

Kitchen Aid mixer.

M's first loaf of banana bread.
