Tong Tong and his new favorite gameWe had a relatively quiet day today. We walked around the neighborhood for awhile, which was fun. We almost died crossing the street-people don't really stop for pedestrians here! But we are all alive, at least for the now. No roadkill de'human today!
We played a lot of games with Tong Tong today. When all his sisters lie face down on the bed, feet hanging off, he likes to tickle their feet and pull them off, then point back up to the bed and say "Up!". We played that for a really long time today-we laid on the bed, he pulled us off. Mom joined in too, and he loved that. It's so nice to have him willingly touch us, even if it's only just our feet.
He also loves to play a miniature form of baseball-he'll hit a crumpled up ball of paper with a long marker and then run to random areas of the room. He loves that game, too, and is a very good hitter!
In other news, Tong Tong is catching a pretty bad cold with a fever. We've given him some tylenol but it doesn't seem to help much. Please pray that he gets well soon!
Later...

Hi Bullingtons,
It's so nice that you've had a couple of days to just relax. I'm so sorry Tong Tong/James is sick -- I am praying he gets better quickly and that everyone else stays healthy. We are all looking forward to you guys coming home!
Love,
Jeanette
Hi Bullington family,
It's so exciting to see little glimpses of what you are doing in China. I can not wait to meet Tong Tong and of course see all of you as well! Love you all so very much!

This is the first comment that I am making in my list of comments to make.
First off, I cannot believe how well James is doing. He is such a brave little trooper and this affection that he showed you all right off the bat is amazing. I cannot wait until you post another update. (Let's pretend that this is back in the past. Our own little time machine.)
Have fun the rest of your time there!
