It was 8 years ago today that we held this little guy for the first time. Little guy, large noggin, sad face.
It took two days to see a genuine smile from Tru. It was well worth the wait.
8 Years Later....
Tru has been obsessed with airports, airplanes and airlines for close to two years. He has his own personal copy of a book discussing all aspects of commercial airlines.
Today, as a surprise, we took Tru to the airport to explore at his heart's content. He loved it!
At the observation deck he watched and narrated. "OK, they are loading the food service there. Over there you can see they are unloading the luggage. Oh, wait, that plane just landed. American Eagle? Huh, I've never seen one of those planes before...."
"Oh, I found Qantas. Alaskan Airlines is not very popular here. Remember that time you got Dad a ticket on Southwest for $75?"
Tru wanted to see how many international airlines he recognized. "Yep, there's British Airways. Huh, I don't know about that one. Oh, Cancun. I'm sure it is nice there."
Lin-Ley went along for the adventure.
We even rode the bus. Tru told the driver we needed to go to the Delta counter.
This sums up the day. Tru is happy! Happy Gotcha Day to our Tru-Tru!! XOXO
