On Monday night, Wm asked if I knew what countries we might be going to next. Never being one to shy away from the topic of moving (my thought is if we talk about it, it becomes "normal"), I hesitatingly told him the list. I hesitated because he is so opinionated ... and I was pretty sure he would decide which place he wanted to move to - which might not end up being the place we actually get assigned - which could lead to disappointment.
After considering the 10 countries or so, he said, "Hmm... I think I'd like to go to Vietnam because it's close to Manila or to India because Patch was born there." Then he continued brushing his teeth. A little later, he piped up again: "If you get a choice between India and Vietnam, I think you should choose Vietnam." His reasoning? "When we lived in India, there was more smog and you said I always had a cough, so maybe Vietnam wouldn't be like that."
Well, kid, we'll see what November 10 has to bring. Could be India or Vietnam, or somewhere else entirely...
