Will finally got his taste of Spring in WI. With that came the purchase of his first set of "wheels" which he calls his "makeena". We put some miles on the makeena today with Oscar and our neighbor Christy. I am loving the handle in the back that allows me to steer and push, something I did not have for Jacklyn and Jaymie. We are hoping for more weather like this for the rest of the week. He took a nice nap today and told Jeffrey tonight that is was time for "night night" and Jeffrey layed down with him and he was out. Nothing like some good ol Wisconsin fresh air to tire the kiddos out. Will is putting words into sentences already. Today he said "see you later Oscar!" It is quite amazing what he is picking up on as his vocabulary grows...This weekend we took my van through the car wash and he thought it was pretty funny that my "makeena" was gettting a shower so he walks around now laughing to himself saying "makeena shower". Jacklyn and Jaymie continue to be great big sisters and get a kick out of his little personality. On Wednesday this week we have our first home visit since he came home. We have to submit 4 reports this year to our agency and then one once a year on the progress Will is making. This info is sent to the Ethiopian government as they like to keep track of how the children are doing and it keeps the programs/agencies of adoption open and running in Ethiopia.
What started as a way to update friends and family of our adoption process has bloomed into a snapshot of our lives as a family of five. We have been blessed through our adoption journey and hope our story of Will growing into our family leads you on your own adoption journey or at least plants a seed....
