My visit with Hayden!

25 years ago, I SWORE I would never drive through Washington, DC. Well, I did yesterday - right through 5 o'clock traffic! Just to go see my Hayden!!!

I was a nervous wreck driving thru that garbage!!! I was 6 minutes from the hospital and it took me an hour to get there! I had the BEST time with Hayden! He has gained weight and looks so good! He's talking more and asking more questions too! :) We played cars, camped out on the floor with his pillow and blanket watching tv, ate Oreo Cookies... visiting hours were over at 8pm....I didn't leave till 10pm! Oops! No one said a word! But what broke my heart was when I was leaving he told me "don't go" 4 times. I got to the car and lost it. I finally made it out of Dodge and got onto familiar roads - took the long way home! I had the best time - just way too short! Got pictures and a video...just waiting on my computer to get fixed!!! Can't wait till Friday to see him again! Chris and Trish are going out for a while to give her a break from the hospital. They could stay out for hours, I wouldn't mind! :)

Wonderful news. So glad you got to spend time with him. Understand completely what you said about the traffic. Why not do one of the park and rides? Park your car and ride the metro?

Love the new look on your blog, keeping you and yours in my thoughts.
