Looking Thomsic

Our family finally all together!!

This is our first family photo.  It was taken on the 30th right when we got out into the airport. 

Hope everyone is having a happy 4th. We had a great day at church yesterday and Andrew has met lots of new people. It is the 5th day home and things are still going well. Andrew seems to be doing well.   He gets along with Ethan and Kayla. They both seem to like him as well. He is eating well and sleeping great.  Ethan and Andrew love sharing a room. We have to go in at least once or twice every night to tell them to stop playing around. Glow sticks, switching bunks, laughing...what a delight. We have known Andrew for two weeks and they have been great.  Andrew continues to grow more and more attached to us. He grabs our hand in public and comes up and hugs or holds on. He is great to be around. He is adapting to our home rules well. He never gives us any problems and responds immediately to correction and guidance.   We get lots of kisses and hugs and he is being more careful with people.  (He doesn't know his own strength)  We noticed when he is nervous he grabs our hands really hard, enough to hurt, so we have had to say several times to be careful.  I can't imagine if it were me when I was 11 and all this happened.  I would have been so lost and afraid.  We are trying to make him feel as safe and loved as possible and I think it is working.  Also, we know that God is faithful and is walking with him as well.  We couldn't be more blessed by our new son.  So far a great kid.  We really appreciate everyone who came to the airport to meet us and him. Also thanks to everyone at church who showed so much love. We are blessed!
