So,
I am overwhelmed. By Chicago. By work. By little kids. By doing therapy in Polish. But not in the totally scary way. It’s just a lot of change and a lot of information in a very short amount of time. I hope my brain makes it though okay. I guess I’ll write about the past four days, but start now instead of at the beginning.
About an hour ago, I got back from this really awesome cupcake place. I went there with one of my roommates and two of her friends, after going to this thing called “Faith and Brew” at a Catholic Church. The topic tonight was-Friendship in a fast-paced world: ‘Friending’ or face to face with others and God. I didn’t pay much attention when the speaker brought God up at the end, but the first half of the discussion was kind of interesting. It made me think of how, when, and with whom I use text messaging/AIM/emails/facebook instead of face-to-face time or even phone conversation. My roommate’s friends are so funny. I laughed so hard that I cried a bunch of times!
Earlier today was my first real day of work. I went in yesterday too, but it was all orientation-type stuff and no seeing kids. Today there were two playgroups (one at 9 and one at 11) and then a seperate little girl I saw at her home. The kids are so cute. SO CUTE! Most of them are between a year and a half and three years old. And I pretty much want to take every one of them home with me.
I’m too tired to write anything else now, but I will this weekend. I promise.

I hope that everything is going well and that you’re loving early intervention. It’s a wild ride some weeks but its really easy to see the progress so thats always nice. I can’t wait to see pictures of the new place and all. Tell chicago I say hello.
