Tomone getting ready to go out

Today Naomi took Tomone to visit one of the old school friends. I took this just before they left. The hat is a bear with ears and a face - real cute.

Today Tomone seemed to recognize her image in a mirror, at least as a person. She tried to reach out and take her hand. Also a little later, she was reaching out to play with the rotating mobile that is about her crib. I was holding her up to it and she reached out and tried to grab each piece as it went by. Finally she has figured out names (Mama, Grammy and Grampy). When someone says one of these names, she looks around for the person and then stares at them for a while.

It is beginning to look like they will move back to Kawasaki sometime in early November. Next week Naomi is taking Tomone home for a week to see how it is. If she has no problems and is able to handle things, she will return here and start packing up for the move. We will, of course, miss them, but at the same time it will be nice to have the peace and quiet that comes from just the two of us living here.
