Can you believe it has been one year since we walked off that plane and to the orphanage where we finally met our son. I remember it like it was yesterday. He was sound a sleep. The caretakers woke him and he cried for a moment ( and still has that same cry) I pick him up and he stopped. He actually cracked a few smiles while I talked to him, sobbed and held him close. There is nothing more special than that moment. The mom I yearned to be... I had become!
I know some people may not believe this but he was completely comfortable with us from that moment. There was no grieving period or crying..... it was like he knew his mommy and daddy were coming. W could not have asked for more... He is so wonderful! I can not wait to wake up in the morning and to see that smiling face.to her him yell MOM..... He has been growing and learning so much lately and is truly a SON to be Proud of. I love to show him off and to talk about him... Every where I take him people (even Men) I do not know stop me and ask about him. Not about being adopted. ( people are shocked when I say he is adopted) They are just amazed by him. I hear how cute he is and how well mannered. And how CUTE he is... I know I already said that... but he is just loved and adore by all! Its hard to go shopping...
My mom's local grocery store all the employees stop what their doing to see him. And you actually hear them say Jacob's here..... He has everyone wrapped around his little fingers.
I have so many hopes and dreams for him. I thank god for him every chance I get!
I'll write more later
