Today I went to go pick up the boys and when I gestured them to "go" in the "car" Darren was all for it but Dylan didn't want to go. The grandma was trying (I think) to get to me stay at their house today so that Dylan could still be with us. The problem was all the materials I had prepared for that day were at my house.. After about 15 minutes and a bilingual phone call I decided I was just going to go and come back tomorrow. When I said I was going to "go" though both, yes both, grabbed their shoes and walked out to my car! Sitting there waiting though all that was going through my head was I can't do this anymore, I don't know what these people are saying, how will this ever work out. I was so down on myself but once they were set to come with me all those doubts went away. We drove to my house which they found very fascinating and wanted to explore it. We sat at the counter and we did a few pages in these books (they were my savior today) luckily the boys kinda knew what to do in them.
After the time in the books I wanted to watch an English movie with them. We watched Monsters Inc which was good for a short amount of time. I mean who would want to sit for a whole movie that they can't understand? But still I think they enjoyed it. Then after a quick bathroom break I took them home. Even a bad start can make for a good ending. They are masters at the word "stop" now so I'm feeling pretty good.
