Be Careful Asking Questions Around Karson

At church today the minister has all the children up front for the Children's Service. She asks the kids what "alleeluja" means. Karson responds "It is what you say when you strike gold." She responds "I think you are thinking of Eureka!" He then asks her "What do eggs have to do with Christ anyway?" This is followed by "And what is the bunny stuff all about?" I just don't get that!" Of course by now the entire congregation is cracking up.

Korea Day 2




Well today we went down to meet Kullen and Kellis foster moms. Kellis did not
show up but called saying her mother in law was in the hospital so we
rescheduled for Tuesday.

Kullen's FM remembered that it was his birthday and brought him the most
beautiful cake I have ever seen. She brought a little gift for all the kids. She
is so nice and sweet. She is still fostering and brought along the little boy.
He was adorable. He is with Eastern and born 7/12/09 ( I think) with the same
name as Karsons. Dong Hyun (not sure if it is spelled the same) Saw all the
foster mothers in the hall with their little ones. THey are just too cute.
Met
Kori from the Holt BB last night with her new daughter. She is just a
sweetie.Anne is such a little doll and I loved watching her eat Cheerios.

This afternoon we went to Holt to visit Karson's foster parents. Well we had
heard the Holt had moved across the street and the exit sign on the subway had
changed from 8 to 7. Needless to say we got lost. Finally found the place and it
was where the foster moms bring their babies for checkups and where parents meet
their children. We were in the wrong place. Now post adoption is in the guest
house building and the original building is going to be torn down. Went to the
Paris Bakery to have lunch and then headed over to the guest house.

Anyway, foster parents were held up so we went down
to play with the babies at the reception center. There were few babies
there.Foster Parents (both of them) arrived with their daughter and
granddaughter. They were so wonderful to Karson. He was itchy and his foster
mother talked about how difficult he was to take care of due to his skin
problems as a baby but that he was sweet and good. The appa is such a wonderful
man. I remember when we met Karson that he cried when leaving him. It is so
obvious that they loved and cared for him. The SW told them about his autism
and they were wonderful with him. Anyway, they invited us over for lunch
tomorrow at their house so we are going sans interpreter...should be
interesting.
