Travieso.
There is a word in Spanish, travieso, and it means naughty, or mischievous. It's a word pretty often thrown around here, especially in the orphanage, but I have never heard it said in reference to a child quite as much as this one gets it:
Here is a list of the milestones I am claiming today.
1. He sat on my knee, or within arm's reach of me for 100% of the singing/bible verse bit.
2. During that portion of the bible club he only fake cried once.
3. In the 1-3 year old class he sat in his seat for 80% of it.
4. He ate NO crayons, and coloured in for a total of about 3 minutes.
5. He only escaped onto the street twice.
6. I only didn't notice once. (Thank you Lord for tias.)

(Do not allow this to take away from how excited we all are for the kid, but there's a chance he's sick, and therefore a little calmer.)
He looks like butter wouldn't melt.
This is an act, do not fall for it.
Today he came to Horita Feliz, which is a bible club the kids go to every Saturday.
He has been once before, and it was a little stressful, I'll be honest.
However, after the move last week the babies just live down the street from it, so he managed to smile his way into being allowed to come.
