During our Christmas party Samuel got to help out in some of the performances that the children did. Even though the roles he played were not very important, he participated in a very positive way, pouring his energy into his role. Samuel proved that his character is cheerful and optimistic and growing every day. When we encourage him and clap for him Samuel shows his pleasure and smiles. I think that as long as we continue to encourage him and help him to participate in more activities, Samuel will grow healthier and stronger. I love my happy Samuel, he is such a blessing!

Our cute little Samuel has a happy surprise in store for us every day. Samuel is now capable of speaking long sentences. For example, one day when his younger sister was crying Samuel went to find her nanny and said, “Mom, sister is crying! Mom, hug!” Another day when some guests came for a visit he said, “mom, guest is here!” Samuel is a friendly boy and enjoys playing with the guests. Samuel likes to go to preschool with the children and when he gets back I ask him, “What did you learn today?” Samuel usually replies, “Uh-huh!” I thought that he was really cute when he said it.
So has it hit you yet that those will be your last updates? On paper coming from New Day? Cause now you’ll be the one sending updates back to them?
Oh my!
I’ve got your prayer list printed out and will be praying for you guys daily! I’m so excited to see you travel. Try to get some pictures of some of the other kiddos to if you can! 😉
Oh this is just so awesome to have these detailed updates! It is clear that Samuel is getting good care and is learning and growing! I am SO excited for you! It sounds as though Samuel and our Katie Grace XiHua are really close in age. Xi Hua just turned 3 a few days ago. Sweeties!!!!
