Four years ago today, we brought this little guy home from Jamaica and how our lives have been blessed! We still can't understand why someone didn't snatch him up years before we found him but are so thankful that God chose us to be his forever parents and for the love and protection he had prior to meeting these crazy white people. We tried to prepare him but there is no way he could understand how his world was about to change.
He might have been nervous but in true Ian fashion, he had the flight attendants wrapped around his little finger in no time!
Meeting the siblings for the first time after getting off the plane.
He looked a bit overwhelmed at first but as soon as he saw the balloons and truck that Mimi and Pa brought, he was all smiles!
Posing with the kids shortly after coming home......
And, look at him now!
He's had 2 surgeries, doubled his weight, grown a ton, uses a communication device and power chair, LOVES school, loves life, and is becoming such a handsome young man! We have learned so much from Ian and he continues to teach us what it means to be content and full of joy.
He has grown up so much. We have enjoyed the journey through pictures and your blog.
