Robert also got to interview the Democrat Gubernatorial Candidate for Texas Governor, Bill White. He really likes him. Two days later he met current Governor Rick Perry. He thinks he upset the Governor a little while asking a question pertaining to overspending in Texas. Although Robert likes him "some", he likes Bill White more.
Beverly still isn't sure about this new job. She "officially" started work on Oct. 1 even though she's been working there for 3 weeks prior. The first paycheck was Oct.15, and she didn't get paid because "there was no more money in the account". Not good. Robert has been trying to help Bev out so this is a joint venture to run the Performing Arts Academy and the owner keeps assuring us that she'll have money to keep the doors open, but we're quite skeptical.
JT sprained his ankle in football practice a week and a half ago and it's slowly healing. Which is too bad because he really started to shine in practice, but now only runs half speed. The season is unofficially over for him despite the injury anyways because the last game is this coming Sunday and, of course, he won't be playing. T even said, "Hey, next week's game is on Sunday huh? I guess that means I can't play." On Saturday night Uncle Ryan & Jefra texted Robert to bring T to the Haunted Trail on Nelson Ranch Lp where they were in line saving them a spot. Robert & T got there right when it was time to go on the trail. T seemed brave so Robert let him walk the trail by himself while standing a few feet behind. Whoops! The trail's "haunters" were just kids themselves and they played too much with T by standing in his way not letting him walk by, following him too close and about halfway through the trail T stopped waited for Robert and whispered, "Pick me up." He did the rest of the trail holding Robert and being very polite to the ghosts, goblins and ghouls by saying "No thankyou" whenever they would beckon him to come closer or help them. He said that the trail was too scary and he "didn't want to ever do that again, daddy!"
Beverly met with Jade's teacher this week and had a long discussion of how we want her tested for Dyslexia and other behavioral issues. Beverly & Jefra did another assessment on their own and her behavior is that of a 4 year old. Beverly has often thought that Jade may be a "bit" autistic, so she's hoping to get more answers. The teacher said she'll talk with the school psychiatrist to see what they can do.
At JT's game this past Saturday, her and a friend were playing in the stands and at one point while running away from some wasps her friend ran into the corner of the metal stands. Immediately blood poured down her face from the gash in her forehead. Panic insued, Beverly handed Ally to the mother of the hurt child while she took care of the injured spawn. After T's game we went as a family to the hospital to make sure she was alright. Jade was really worried about her friend. She's already seen a lot of trauma for such a young girl. Last summer the kids watched as Bev had to do CPR on a lady who had a heart attack at a public pool and the year before, while at Summer Camp, a camper was revived by lifeguards after drowning.
Ally is crawling around very well now. She no sooner started crawling and she's already trying to stand and walk! Crazy. She still loves her daddy best and lights up when she sees him. She loves her Johnny Jump Up bouncing chair. She looks like she's dancing the RiverDance!
