Just wanted to let you know though that we are all doing very well. Eli continues to surprise, delight and amaze us daily with his learning, growth, progress, strength. He is SUCH a great little guy. I get teary-eyed each time (many times a day!) I pause to be grateful for having him in our lives and I marvel how perfect he is for us.
This long journey, this complex adoption process has all been worth this remarkable gift. Honestly, I don't have words to describe how special it is to be bonding and growing together with such an amazing little boy. My heart overflows.
Every day I'm so so proud of him and all he's accomplishing. He is persistent, strong, curious, stubborn, clever, funny, adorable, FAST, independent, so communicative, courageous, kind.
Have I mentioned his great laugh?! You must hear it. It will melt your heart too.
Laundry is done, we are completely unpacked, I'm learning to take naps. I need them like never before. I turn 37 this week and this little man is the best at keeping me young... or at least on the go!
Eli has learned to give high fives, hugs, and hand shakes, though he'll only give these out when he wants to. He is warming up to friends' dogs. He is loving parks, fall leaves, and trees! He is starting to share!! Hooray!
