One Year Later

Wow! One year ago today was a day to remember- from excitement and joy to reality! Caleb has come a long way in one year, as have the rest of us! He has grown physically, emotionally, and educationally. He is attending Pre-school through out Special Education Early Childhood program, and between the language rich environment there, the daycare, older siblings, and life -he is understanding so much! He tries to communicate more and more and becomes more and more understandable. He still struggles to communicate all he wants to and, therefore, we have temper tantrums and misunderstandings at times around here. They seem to be getting less, but are still long and a struggle when they do occur. Caleb has had 4 surgeries on one year, with the last being a baby root canal and 6 caps on his back teeth. He has done very well with each and every one of them.
He has become more snuggly and is really a mommy's boy, but branching out more and more to daddy now. He loves to snuggle and hug and feels part of the family.
We plan to celebrate Gotcha day with Chinese food at a local restaurant tonight. God has blessed us, each and everyone!
