Gotcha Day Anniversary Number 2!

We have been so blessed by our Heavenly Father! He hand picked Andrew for our family. There is no doubt about it! I can't even begin to list the ways he is like us even though he was born of our hearts and not from my womb. We have had a great day today and got great news from his ENT. No more pe tubes for now. He does have a little scarring in the left ear with a little low level hearing loss. He hearing is definitely good enough for hearing and speech. Praise the Lord for that gift!
We had dinner with friends tonight who also adopted from China. They have been home for 3 months. PF Chang's was awesome as usual.
We forgot to take our camera for picks. So sorry.
I do think of Andrew's biological parents and wonder if they realize how much is is truly loved and how he has grown. I am so thankful for their sacrifice. It couldn't have been easy. I am speechless and I am not eloquent. Can you believe it?! Know that my heart cries tears of joy! I'll try to write more later in detail.
Love to all. I miss all our travel buddies. Happy Gotcha Day to you all.

I'm 4

It's hard to believe that our little boy is 4 years old. It seems like just yesterday that we were in China to welcome Andrew into our family. Andrew celebrated his birthday with 8 of his preschool classmates and a few other friends. Saturday, he will celebrate his birthday with family and friends.

Finally, a nice day!

We finally had a nice day! No snow or rain falling today. Yeah! There are signs of spring in the air. Can't let that fool us though. Last year we had a fantastic day gardening and playing in the yard and the next thing we knew we had a big snow! We'll see how it goes. The trees are starting to bud now and we've tilled the gardens. We jumping to do some planting . Just have to decide what it will be.
Andrew got a new T-ball set and had a great time practicing on his bike. He hasn't had much practice time since Christmas.
We've got a big week coming up. Andrew turns 4 on Thursday and we have family coming this weekend to help celebrate. Hope everyone is dong well. We send our love out to everyone. May God bless you all.
