"Home" for one year now :-)

We've passed the one year mark since Joshua first came "home".... on 12/19/09. And in that one year:

He has grown 3 full inches
He has gained 1.5 pounds
He has learned to print his name!
He can count to 10
He has gone from scribbling to coloring in the lines
He is adoring school (part-time K)
He seems securely attached to mom and dad
His English vocabulary has exploded
He is healthy and happy and loving life
He adores Sunday School and weekly church
He has added LOTS of life and laughter to our home :-).

We often are amazed that out of some 140 million orphans in the world, God chose our family for this "one". We wonder what his future will bring.... :-).
