Yet Another Photo Update

Jake started soccer today and boy was it adorable! I was excited to see how he would handle it and I was so proud. It was pretty much bees on honey the whole time, but it was hysterical to watch. Jon is the coach and he did a great job too. There are six kids on his team and Jake jersey is number ten! As he says," One and zero make ten!"

Jake started back to preschool and he is now going three mornings a week. Some of the kids stay for lunch and every day he asks to stay for lunch too. Selfishly, I am just not ready for four hours without Jake around. We told him when he turns four, January... he can start staying for lunch too. He is such a school nerd like me! It makes me so proud. Will's adoption closing ceremony was perfect. We had the nicest judge who gave us a very heartfelt speech at the end of the proceedings about how much he lovers doing adoption ceremonies. how each child is a blessing and that no matter how your family if formed, you are blessed to have children. he is also said that labor doesn't make you a parent and that the love is created through your bond. I couldn't agree more Judge! He asked us to send him a copy of this picture so he can add it to his "happy thoughts" album that he looks at on his tough days being a judge in Camden, NJ. There were three or four other families waiting in the hallway of the courthouse and you could just feel the love and blessings in the air! An amazing end to a wonderful experience! I also included some pics from last weekend when we took a much needed day trip to B-more. Pop Pop played in the yard with the boys the whole day and they even cleaned out and added new fish to his pond. It was a big hit! Poor Gigi broke her foot so she was recovering, but we were able to see her and spend some time catching up too.
