This is what we were told about Dieunifer during the month of November:
This month we took hand and foot prints of all the kids at the Main House. I do my best to have this done about every three months so you have an extra treasure to take home with you when you come and pick up Dieunifer. Each child reacts a differently to having their hands and feet painted and then pressed against the paper. Most of them are intrigued by the different feel and will closely examine it while others will want to eat it. Dieunifer seemed to enjoy the hand and foot print process. She was curious about the paint and allowed her volunteer to paint and press her hand into the paper.
Developmentally Dieunifer is advancing well. She is a very verbal little girl who will repeat at least one or two words of anything she hears. She loves to look at books, especially the ones with flaps that can be lifted. She knows that the box of toys you have sent is hers and will guard it closely when another child comes close to it. With other toys she is generally very willing to share but she seems to know what toys are for her specifically. She is really enjoying the egg carton with eggs in it. She loves to play with it and explore how it all fits together. When she wants or needs something she will point and make what she wants clear.
You may notice in her photos that Dieunifer has a rash on her face and arms. It appeared at the end of October and got bad over a couple of weeks (this is when I took the photos) but our pediatrician prescribed a couple of different medications and the rash has cleared a lot and is currently almost gone. Even though she was likely itchy from the rash and annoyed with the cream that she had to put on at least twice a day she was always in a jolly mood. She did not let it get her down at all and allowed the creams to be put on her without any problem.
