Like Eloise, we too live in a hotel...at least according to Xavier.
During our first few days in our new home, Xavier kept saying, "I like our hotel". We all chuckled and reminded him that we were in an apartment, not a hotel. We've visited both apartments and hotels before, and Xavier knows the difference.
But Xavier continues to refer to our apartment as a hotel. Could it be that he hasn't accepted the "not-so-short" nature of our stay here? Or maybe it's because our bathroom is very white with a large mirror and double sink - very much like hotel bathrooms. Or maybe it's because his parents are always reminding him (nagging actually) to be more quiet so we don't disturb the people around us.
Or maybe it's that it just doesn't feel like home...yet.
