Not only does he not insist on being held, but he also helps to take care of them! When he sees a little one crying, he immediately goes to them and helps wipe their tears. No comforting by Samuel is without a kiss and he gives them with the sweetest affection. We were so excited when we received photos of Samuel\u2019s parents who are going to adopt him soon. Sometimes I ask him, \u201cSamuel, what do you have in your family?\u201d He usually considers for a moment and then says, \u201cDad and Mom.\u201d I often find him looking at the photo album of his family and, if another child tries to touch it, he clutches it tightly to himself and says, \u201cIt\u2019s mine, it\u2019s mine!\u201d We are so excited for him.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"color: #800000;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.learningtogetherathome.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/11\/427112010.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-1223\" title=\"427112010\" src=\"http:\/\/www.learningtogetherathome.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/11\/427112010.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"360\" height=\"538\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.learningtogetherathome.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/11\/427112010.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.learningtogetherathome.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/11\/427112010-200x300.jpg 200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 360px) 100vw, 360px\" \/><\/a><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u00a0 We have so so loved interacting with Samuel every Sunday evening.\u00a0 Sure it makes our hearts ache afterwards, but it is so so worth every moment.\u00a0 It is possible to fall in love over a long distance relationship. \u00a0 From New Day Foster Home this morning&#8230;\u00a0 Samuel is 2 Years 9 Months Old.
