Just got a call from my sister. "Hey Frankie, what do you need to make stir fry? Because Jasmine wants to have that for supper next time you babysit." Awesome. Maybe I am having some positive effect. She also wants to eat my Thai peanut noodle dish, and some ready-made Indian food that I'd previously fed her. Sounds like she's on a big exotic food kick. Interest in new things and planning for her future (the future that is a few days from now) as opposed to being passive and sullen - these are very good signs.
