Palm Sunday

Johane is in bed asleep. She was completely exhausted by a very full weekend. She watched a movie on Friday. Saturday she was up and out very early for a full day of special olympics basketball tournaments. Crafts, dancing, exercise and running around bullock creek school kept her wired and sweaty.
She barely rallied for Church at 9:30 on Sunday but managed to wave her palm branches with the best of them. After church she walked a little. We spent the afternoon watching TV and doing quiet activities. She grilled hamburgers with Papa Dennis for Dinner. She didn't eat all that much. Too tired I suspect. She talked to her papa in Haiti for a few minutes. She seemed to need a little cuddling tonight. After watching Schreck II we threw her in the tub, washed her up and she was out like a light.
Her understanding of english is sky-rocketing. Her speach is also taking off. If she doesn't get it she says "I don't know". So you know she is trying and not just letting it pass.
We get to see Dr. Houser this week. Johane's contact skills are improving daily. I am very proud of her. I only cheated once. She was too tired and failed 5 times in a row.....kept saying "almost", "almost" I couldn't take it any more. I popped it in for her. She was getting too frustrated.
Easter is only a week away. She returns to haiti in 4 weeks. That time will go by fast.
Thank-you for your continued prayers. They are a blessing to us.
Blessed Holy Week!
Cynthia and Johane Dort
