First Sunday Class

We took Emily to the Sunday class this past weekend. It was her first class ever. During church, we took her to the nursery. There was only one boy of her age in that room. Emily started playing on her own. Melissa who worked there urged me to leave:" She did so well, you can go back to the service." I had planned to stay in case she cried. But after Melissa said several times that I could leave. I felt like I should leave. So I went back to the auditorium. After the service, David and I went to the nursery to check on Emily. She was doing fine until in the middle of the Bible class, she began to cry. Miranda told us it was because she saw us there. Emily didn't sit through the class. She was hungry and sleepy toward the end. She fell asleep not long after we left church. It was one hour after her regular nap time.

Emily figured out how to open and close the cabinets and doors this week. She practiced it whenever she had chances. She also knew that she could tear the paper into pieces.

David went to the EEM dinner Thursday. It had a great turnout. Saturday we had the last LST training session at our house. Sunday afternoon David's reader Victor wanted to go to church with David after FriendSpeak. But David had to give a ride to another reader back home. Victor has attended evening services with us for a couple of times. He apparently liked it. Hopefully he will come with us next Sunday.

These two pictures are taken when Emily played in the nursery

This is when Emily was in the Bible class. We missed the picture of her crying because we could not find the camera then.

This picture was taken when Emily ate banana while holding the paper she tore apart

In this picture, Emily was watching the Potty Power DVD
We moved Emily's sitting play area to the office so she has two places to play now

The previous sitting play area became a cruising/entertainment area

See what I mean by "cruising"

Ah, ah! Don't look at the diaper on the floor ...
