last update for the weekend (or so I thought)

[coyotegoth]

From roadnotes's LJ:

the two big things today are that this morning, Soren sang a descending major scale to me, after I'd been singing to him for a few minutes; and that this evening, he could actually say, "I... want...". He got frustrated and stressed by not being able to finish, but he did so in front of is nurse, so she could write it down.

I am wiped, awed with the kindness of the world and, oh, yes...

Goofy family moment: my nephew, Franklin, came by. He and Soren have done some serious bonding over r&b and hip hop music. Franklin "suggested" that we try something other than Simon and Garfunkel, and chose a Public Enemy/Anthrax song (I don't know the title, but everyone else on the planet seems to)... so we changed from my .mp3 player to Franklin's iPod.

Soren went from eyes-closed, asleep-looking, to eyes-open, turning to us, and glower of "What the F*** are you doing?" in about three seconds. Franklin, of course, said, "It was her idea; I tried to talk her out of it."

I don't think Scraps believed him, but I think we're all in trouble.

I think that nieces & nephews can be pretty damn cool.

I believe the song was called "Bring The Noise," which...sounds like an accurate title.
