Kaiden's First Gotcha Day! 6/13/09
Hi everyone....this weekend marked one year since our sweet boy was placed with us forever!!! In some ways it seems like only yesterday and yet in others it was a lifetime ago. When I think back at all the stress and ups and downs of the process I am so thankful to be able to type this update (and still mad as @#$# at PGN
 ) and still appreciative of all the support we received through this forum!!!Kaiden has done SO much the last year! He has adjusted absurdly well--he is happy 90% of the time! He takes gymnastics and loves to jump and dance, ride the tractor, wrestle with the dogs, watch Elmo and go boating with PaPa. He is the light of our lives and we can't imagine how we made it so long without him! HAPPY GOTCHA DAY KAIDEN!!! WE LOVE YOU!!!!! Here are a few pictures of our boy these days!
