Abbie's sleepless nights must be getting to her. No wonder, if Abbie honks and yells, pokes and paws, all night like she does during the day!
I'd bet Isaiah is counting down the days to being back in Boone with peace and quiet! Those behaviors of Abbie's could've been curtailed (reduced) long ago but they weren't. Respite and caregivers kept Abbie busy enough, Asa and Priscilla didn't have to deal with her as much, and did nothing to curb the behaviors back then. Now, they have to deal with her more themselves and their lack of giving her time, attention and some discipline back when it counted is catching up with them now.
