Last night, we celebrated one year with a kid friendly musical. Our family loves music, and Jay-R fits in perfectly as he loves music, too. We went to see Blue's Clue Live on stage. It was really cute. It was so much fun watching all the little kids get all excited. And Ashleigh wasn't alone in being the only big sibling who came along...I saw many others, too. We had a fun time and Jay-R can't wait to go to another musical.
And speaking of music, Jay-R played the drums at my band practice the other night. He may be getting a drum soon. Daddy says it's going in the basement!
It's hard to believe it's been one year. We can't imagine life without him. He brings a lot of laughter to our lives and yes, frustration, at times, too. He can be very stubborn and strong-willed. He has adjusted so well to his life here. He still misses Jaymark, his best buddy in the Philippines. We pray for him daily that he might have a family soon, too. Jay-R is very social-loves kindergarten, his church, all the family-he's a very loving little boy who loves to cuddle and loves attention. He has found a love of pizza loaded with meat, something he wouldn't touch when we first came home. He'll even eat broccoli with cheese now. So many changes in one year for all of us. Right now, I'm smiling as I watch him clean his room. He's doing a great job. He's knows tonight is allowance payday!
