6 months....

You came to us 6 months ago willingly...


of course the M&Ms didnt hurt



You were pretty goofy then too


That first day we got some great smiles!




You said goodbye to one who loved you.


You embraced new experiences


and made new friends


You settled in..






You got to know your siblings...


and meet Santa


You keep us laughing...


and laughing!!

We simply cannot believe that we have been so blessed to have been your parents for these last 6 months. It seems like you have been here forever! You have changed so much, Gained almost 4 pounds, grew an inch and 2 shoe sizes. You speak almost entirely in English and have the best personality. You are amazingly loving and open with us. There hasnt been tears, your grief has been in your solitude sometimes, your insecurity. Gods plan was perfect, you have always been our son, half a world away. I am constantly amazed by your strength, your resilancy. You are the bravest person I have ever met. My heart breaks for all the fear you must have had at leaving everything you knew, to come halfway around the world with virtual strangers. We were in love with you from your pictures but you didnt know us at all. We are so humbled that God chose us to care for you, love you, raise you. We love you more than our heads could even imagine, our hearts are so full. We are so blessed to call you our son!
