We started counting down how many “sleeps” (or days) we have until we leave for the US in an attempt to get Asher really excited about our trip (and practice counting). I put some coins in a jar, and each day we count how many “sleeps” we have until we leave. My plan must be working because it’s all he talks about now—going to America on a big airplane, what he’s going to take there and who we’ll see.
