Welcoming "R"

Our dear friends finally had their dream come true this past February.  The child that they've wished for and waited for - for over four years finally came home.   They traveled to China to bring their son home and it was  love at first sight.  "R" was special needs in that he had a cleft lip and pallet that needed to be repaired.  I saw him prior to his surgeries (yes this little boy  has had two since March) and he is doing fantastic! In June my  family was  invited to a picnic celebration to welcome  him into his new life.  It was a great afternoon for all --- good friends, food, games  and lots of smiles.  LOL  - the bugs were terrible and the best bug repellent was Bounce.  By the end of the afternoon we all had Bounce attached to our heads to keep the bugs away from our faces (it really does work but looks a little silly)!
