The Journey of a thousand miles must begin with a single step. -Lao: Day 167

Baby Boy, 2

You will often see this little guy with a heart across his face because he is a foster child through our state. We got the call about him when he was only a few days old and were blessed with the honor of bringing him home from the hospital. Although, you can't see his face, I can assure you he is ADORALBE! He has an infectious laugh and is quite opinionated. He loves playing with balls, trucks and sticks, but don't be surprised if you see him toting around a princess purse and baby doll too.

Day 167 - Foster Care Visit & Piano Lessons...

This morning Jonah had a visit with his birth mother. It was pretty surreal actually meeting his birth mother after wondering about her for the last seven months. I will follow the age old wisdom of "If you don't have anything nice to say, don't say anything at all." Actually I do have one thing to say...I hope we don't have many more visits.

We had a fun & busy day today. I am so blessed to spends my days with my four little sweeties. I am thankful beyond words.

Tonight Sophie Le & I went to a baby shower for a friend from church. Sophie Le decided she likes showers...I think she just liked the food :o) Haha! I could never imagine taking Hillary Ashton to a baby shower at Sophie Le's age or taking Julianne at any age...haha! It is so nice having a least one girl that is pretty calm and quiet...in public that is! Haha!

Tonight Hillary Ashton starting piano lessons!!! She is so excited. She did really good at her first lesson. By the end of her lesson, she was able to play a song all by herself! Ode to Joy. Precious! She obviously has a natural talent :o) AND an AWESOME teacher (her daddy!).

Listening intently :o)

Little fingers...LOVE, LOVE, LOVE!!!
