Today Fisher has been home 6 months and it has been 6 months of learning and loving. We are so happy to have him be part of our family and love watching him grow. I always get choked up seeing the referral pictures and Fisher's pictures here are no different. It is amazing to see Fisher grow into a much bigger, more confident and less scared little boy.
Wonderful pictures we got from travelling families.
Ready to go home with Daddy!
At the airport!
First bath -- did not know what to do with all the water and now he is on swim team!
One of the first of many, many brother pictures!
Today, a confident little boy loving life and soccer!
Us all together to celebrate Fisher and baptism.
Another brother picture!
Here are some wonderful things that Fisher has learned and taught us all since he as been part of our life.
1. We are blessed to have each other, family and friends -- without everyone's support there would be no Fisher in our lives.
2. Fisher is a smart, kind and compassionate little boy who loves deeply and hurts deeply.
3. Fisher has had great sadness in his life but also great joy and lives with his focus on joy!
4. Fisher loves loves school and all his great teachers from his first teacher Mrs. Morkes to Mrs. Repsis in summer school and Mrs. Robertson in 2nd grade and all his great team at school. He just loves to learn.
5. Life is hard adopting an older child but all good things hard?
6. Life is wonderful adopting an older child, you can watch them grow and learn and become a new person with some love!
7. He has a family in Ethiopia that we will forever be thankful to for giving us their son and brother to be ours forever.
8. Our lives have forever changed for the better with Fisher coming home.
