Thao's Mom

I wonder how many times he tried to swing from the light above the table. I wonder how many times he tried that I didn't catch him. I wonder how many sweet treats he has hidden around the house. I wonder where his best hiding places are. I wonder how many times he beat me in checkers. I wonder what would have happened if we would have tried to make "Canned Pear Bread". I wonder how God could ever bless me so much from one sweet little boy. I wonder how long it will be until I can hold him again. I wonder what real life feels like. I wonder how long this will last. I wonder how God can give us so much peace and comfort and yet, still have more to give. I wonder if donuts really do taste better to Thao than everyone else. I wonder why all animals have always loved Thao. I wonder how God could make Thao with such a gentle spirit AND such strong will. I wonder how many times I will read "The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe" reminiscing of the nights at home, listening to Jeff read it to the kids. I wonder if any of you know how to play "Hide and Tickle" or "Come Get Me" or  puppies or dinosaurs or Narnia. I wonder if Catlin (or Scotland) needs another good policeman to fight bad animals.
