I was up far too late last night when our update came through about Samuel. It made it easier to go to sleep after having had that snippit of info about him. Every day I look for updates on the New Day blog, foster home site and their Facebook page. Getting this update once a month is like the icing on the cake! As a family, we are collectively falling in love with Samuel!
Samuel is 2 Years 7 Months Old.
Samuel’s nanny wrote this update:
Samuel is agile and cute. The day before yesterday we had a mini Triathlon in the foster home
back yard and he did very well. He jumped and crawled around in the swimming pool, splashing
water with his hands. He ended up splashing not only himself, but all of the children around him!
When Samuel got water in his eyes, he wiped his face and continued to play with the others.
Samuel did brilliantly on the race track. As soon as the signal was fired he raced to the finish as
fast as he could. After the running race we had a crawling race for Samuel and his buddy Joshua
who also specializes on his hands and knees. Samuel is so quick that he raced ahead of Joshua at
first, but he is also so thoughtful that he waited to cross the finish line until Joshua caught up so
that they could cross together. Samuel is now able to go up and down the stairs without the aid
of an adult. He can also climb onto the sofa, eat and take off his clothes independently. Samuel’s
smile and laughter brightens up any day.
