9:00 AM — Talked about being bored out of your mind – the only thing that has helped is secretly planning my escape from NICU. After resting comfortably for the last few hours and surveying my resources and options, I decided the best course of action was to enlist the help of my fellow inamtes. They all agreeed to help, so after the morning round of giving blood and x-rays, precisely at 8:30 AM, we started choir practice. Not bad for a bunch of weak-lunged kids. Thinking that the nurses would be distracted by the joyful noise, I caught dad’s attention and whispered that we needed to seize the opportunity created by the confusion and run. Unfortunately, dad seemed to be working on some other method of escape that involved blinding the captors with the flash bulbs on his camera. He should have known that was too amateurish to work. The head NICU nurse saw right through his plan and put the floor on lockdown. Choir practice ceased as they stuck bottles in our mouths to prevent further communication. Hopefully, between today and tomorrow, I can come up with a better plan so that I can get downstairs to my mama. – JTT

It’s unbelievable that your family has two talented writers. After helping Ariana with her homework yesterday I am sure she has a little ways to go (as well as mom and I). Trying to use her spelling words in sentences that are 7 words long was a challenge for mom, Ariana and me. European, Bloat, Float, Scapegoat (we used the sentence that Ariana was the Scapegoat when Vivian colored on the walls. To which the rest of the time Vivian told us she colored on the walls even though she didn’t, very cute…) Every (without putting another word on like everyday or everyone or everybody). In the end the homework was complete although I am sure she missed the expertise of her parents. – Hope all is going well.
