It has been fun to watch Epimaque adjust to his new surroundings. From the moment we met him and Ady at the airport he became all smiles. (Ady said he had been more than a handful during the travels.) He was actually quite giddy when we got to the house. He seems over all very content and happy.
But, there is certainly adjustment going on too - for every one.
I think maybe Reuben is finding it the hardest. For the last 4-1/2 years he has been the youngest and has had daddy pretty much to himself. Now he has to share! He is doing very well, but there are times when it is a little much for him. Especially as Epimaque does not slow down.
For each of us there is adjustment required. If you decide to adopt, be prepared. That said, I'm not sure you can. You KNOW this is going to be different, but then when it actually happens, it's different all over again - nothing like you expected. You need to know the un-knowable.
Well worth it though.
Also, we really wanted to say a BIG THANK-YOU to all of you who have supported us to this point. The many encouraging words and prayers have been invaluable. As well, the donations were much needed and greatly appreciated.
Thank-you incredibly.
Blessings.
