Today is the one year anniversary of K joining our family. It has in many ways been a very short year and a very long one. It does feel like we have always been a family of four. In a most fitting way, K began his day at the eye doctor. This was followed by therapy, a trip to Chuck E. Cheese, and then dinner with both sets of grandparents and Uncle Don.

The blog may take a prolonged hiatus. It is harder to comment on our daily lives without revealing so much the kids are embarrassed. They are growing up so much and I want them to feel safe emotionally around us. They still tickle me and test me and sometimes I want to relay the latest drama, but I don't want to betray them. If/when we ever travel again, we will reboot, but for now, a break is in order.

I am so ready for the grass to be this green again!

My blogging enthusiasm has once again taken an hiatus. We have falling into a busy routine. We have some form of therapy every day of the week. There has been lots of progress. We were watching video from last Easter a couple of weeks ago and K doesn't even run the same. He has much better use of his left arm and is so much more steady on his feet. I think it has been so gradual that I didn't realize how far he had come. His physical therapist told me they are ready to increase his difficulty, which is fantastic. It's amazing to see how far he has come.

We plod along with our third adoption. Nothing really to report on that front. It has been suggested we select an "L" name, then the kids would be, in order of adoption, J,K,L. I think we should be selecting an "I" name, because they would be K,J,I in descending order of age.
