A few weeks ago the Houston Grand Opera came for a visit to the ranch, and this young lady accompanied her parents. Her name is Varvara (similar to Barbara but the emphasis is on the second syllable), and she is Russian. She and Jaxson had a marvelous time together given the fact that he is 1.) quite the social creature and 2.) rather friend deprived at the moment. If y'all could pray that he meet some friends that would be greatly appreciated.
She happened to be on the playground when Jaxson saw her and yelled, "A friend!" He ran over to her, they chased each other briefly and she left saying, "I be back." Imagine a Russian accent. When she came back she had something in her hand and went up to Jaxson asking, "You vant a cookist?" She had cookies in her hand, and was offering one to Jaxson. Of course Jaxson never turns down cookies. The really funny thing is that for several days after she left Jaxson continued to refer to them as "cookists" in his best Russian accent. I'm not sure if he was just being funny or if he really thought they were called cookists, but it was hilarious.
