Welcome to 'Waiting for TJ'

We have a family blog about our two daughters, Jiejieandmeimei.blogspot.com. When we began the paper chase for a young man named Tianjun, we created a new web home for him. Since he will be about 7 years old when he joins our family, and not an infant as Jiejie and Meimei were, we want to give him as much history as we can as a member of our family, starting with our first look at a photo of him.

The Learning Curve

TJ is learning faster than I ever imagined he would. Just a few examples of his newfound vocabulary and interrogatives (!) in the last few days:

What you doing? (to everyone, all the time)

What you say?  (to Mom, who said the words "presents for TJ" in a phone conversation)

"I number one!" for toothbrushing, using the restroom, and just about everything you have to line up for in a house with three kids.

Why Jiejie 15 dollar? (upon hearing that a groupon-type offer would allow us to buy $30 worth of fabric for sewing class with a $15 voucher)

Why? (of course, and endlessly)

And each time that we are able to give him a considered answer, he learns more.
