Nine months ago, I met two very scared children who knew no English except for Happy Birthday and likely had never seen a white person before in their lives. In nine months, our world has changed even more that we could have imagined. But today I think about those little scared, timid faces. Wow have they grown.
Here is that first picture. I showed it to Sofia recently. She said, "My bed. My bed. That's my bed!" It is really incredible to now see how much they remember and can tell us about. Both kids are becoming more secure and attached to Tyler and I. Jhohan is FINALLY on the charts for his height and weight! They make strives every day that often seem small but in our world are huge.
Sofia can dress herself independently and loves to help around the house. She really enjoys gathering dirty laundry and helping to prepare meals. She plans to work at Hot Rods with Mommy when she grows up.
Jhohan recently got his "big boy" wheelchair and just started aquatic therapy. His increased growth and strength amaze me. He interacts very well with his peers. He still loves anything associated with cars, wheels, etc. He wants to work at Ortho Knox when he grows up.
Thank you all for continuing to pray and be a part of our journey. For more regular updates, find us on facebook or instagram.
