Finally back to school today, though no bus showed up to pick us up. I finally got a phone number for another teacher who can help relay bus messages to the driver in Turkish to hopefully help this problem. Apparently he came each day I was sick, and then gave up by today, when we were finally ready to come back. Feeling much better now, though still not 100%. Hopefully soon.

Aeden said, clear as day, "Thank you". But it was a one-time deal. Please is working well for him, but thank you, not yet. Except that once, when all of us froze and couldn't believe it was really him. Hiiii and Byeeee with emphatic parade waves are his specialty. Which is kind of fun when we're out and about cause it makes him charm the socks off of strangers even more than he does just existing as a cute little boy.
