This little man is growing by leaps and bounds every day. 
He hit a growth spurt and everyone we see comments on how long he is! As you can see in the picture his is up and running!
His vocabulary is growing as well. His current words are:
Dada
Mama
Woof Woof for Bleu
Dadis for Davis
Dat for Paige
Night Night
Yum!
No no no no no no
He is an absolute joy and we relish everyday that we get to see his personality bloom. I do not take for granted his life and the gift it is to us.
Next month we will have been home 9 months. The same amount of time that he was an orphan. For some reason this timeline is very important to me. Not that I can ever make up for the time we didn't have with him, but we have built a new foundation for him to grow upon and to me it gets stronger with every passing day.
People have made comments about how great we must be as parents or people. It's so hard not to laugh in their face. I am not perfect, most days I'm barely nice. For reasons we may never know God has chosen us to parent this child and I try really hard not to screw him up.
To quote Evan Almighty "He chose all of us.". We just have to answer him.

I'm not even sure what to write...my heart just swelled and ached as I read this.
Thanks for your prayers and support dear sister.
Benjamin and Nicholas' mom gave me this verse for a situation I was in ... and it just popped into my heart as I read this!
God will restore the time the locusts have taken!
"I will repay you for the years the locusts have eaten— the great locust and the young locust, the other locusts and the locust swarm — my great army that I sent among you." Joel 2:25
