Christie's New Home

Richard and I went and hung out with Christie this week. She seems to be settling into her new place. We found her in the activities room watching Harry Potter. She immediately wanted us to take her outside. Outside we went! It could not have been a more beautiful day. She played with the local cat "cookie" that hangs out there. The birds are used to being fed also so they would come right up to you. She kept mouthing 'come here birdie birdie'. We stayed outside for most of the day. She said she felt free out there. She seems to be more alert than normal. It was pleasant to see here happy. I let her use my cell phone to text page her mom. She was getting mad at the phone because she thought the I was an L so she was mispelling words but she figured it out. She will start attending school soon. They have enrolled her in a school for special needs children. They said it usually takes a couple weeks to get accepted. Then she will go by bus everyday to school. She wasnt sure what to think about that. Anyway, we are looking forward to our next visit.
