It really feels like J’s first birthday today

Yes, I know that is strange. One year ago today our dear son came home. It was a sunny, warm fall day like today. I can’t believe it’s been a year. He was so small! Now he’s a happy healthy one year old. What a blessing he has been and continues to be in our lives. Here are some pictures from the day.

Here is J with daddy. I want to dig out the old picture of him coming home, he was wearing the same outfit (different size of course).

J now knows “Wie Gross bist du?” Or in English, “how big are you?” This is him doing it for the camera.

By the way. I bought a set of pylons for R and friends to play with outside. What a hit! The kids loved them. They set up obstacle courses, yelled into them, and watched how they glowed as they put them over the outdoor lights. What great fun.
