Kai and Maria in Denver
I’ve only heard briefly from Maria and Kai. She tried calling me once from a place where they were skiing, but she was on the cell and we had a poor connection. All I got to hear was that Kai was having a good time, and she had to convince him to tell his first lie – he had to say he was 4 so he would be allowed to take skiing lessons! She called me again yesterday, but I had just started grouting (the clock is ticking once you mix the grout) and he was having a temper tantrum anyway. She said he’s been having a couple every day. He almost never has them at home, so I don’t think he’s handling the disruption well. Kids at this age really don’t like changes in their routines, and flying across the country, staying in a new place, and being away from school and dad are all big changes. I hope he manages to settle down for the rest of their time there.
