Defining Hope: February 7, 2013 -- Profoundly blessed.

Well, Grayson has now been in America for 5 days now! Where has the time gone :) I haven't been writing on here everyday due to the crazy schedules we have been keeping and the fact that I need sleep (hehe). It has been quite tricky to try and completely flip-flop our schedules. Every day Grayson is getting better and better. We have loved company and the very generous friends and family that have brought us meals each night. It seems that every day the blessings continue to flow for our family. Most days I find myself in tears at the goodness of people and the fact that it's just now hitting me that we really are home. I keep dreaming at night that it's not real - but when I go to Grayson's crib and he is in there sleeping peacefully, my mind is at ease. It has been wonderful to have family and friends meet our miracle and for them to get to see his personality. He is adjusting better each day and is beginning to latch on to Matt (Daddy). This morning Grayson was playing on the floor and Matt walked by the doorway. Grayson saw him and started crying because he wanted Matt to come pick him up and play with him!!! That was a huge breakthrough for Grayson as he is learning who he earthly Daddy is. I continue to get teary eyed every time I think about our future and the things we will get to do with our little guy. Like for instance - Valentines Day. It just now hit me that it's next week!! I not only have 1 valentine this year, but TWO! We are so profoundly blessed and I cannot wait to wake up each day. Below are some pics of our past few days. :)
