My Definition of Cute

I look at Dennis and I see such a beautiful, happy boy. Did I mention incredibly cute too?
It is hard to believe that he once was a fragile, quiet, medical needy baby. If you went back and read about our first few days with him, you would be simply amazed by his transformation.
Tonight I cut his hair and he stood still. Such a big boy. Freshly washed, I breathed in his sweet smelling hair and marveled at how healthy and shiny it is. If only his caretakers could see him now.
Dennis is growing up more each day. Even though he is bigger and heavier and thinks he can do anything his older siblings can do, little does he know that he is still
my little baby.

Love it!

We too have seen amazing {miraculous} transformations in our two medically fragile children--both were near death when the Lord brought them home.

God is a God of redemption, both physically and spiritually.

Thanks for sharing.

Blessings from the North,

He is a pretty boy.I love the change in him. When he came home, he looked scared on the pictures. Now you see pure joy on his face. Especially on the picture with pumpkin, my fav :)

He is precious! And has come so far since the eye surgery. Your family and Dennis are all incredibly blessed that you were willing to follow your heart and be open to a child with medical issues. So many are not. :( Alex is a blessing, too, I'm sure. You have a lovely family. Happy Thanksgiving!

Man, Dennis is REALLY growing up! He looks less "baby" and more "little boy" with every photo you post. He's such a cute kid!

Where'd you get his pajamas, by the way?

He really is a beautiful boy. And thanks to you he looks so happy and HEALTHY. Yes I was just thinking how silky shiny his hair looks, and soft and perfect his skin. I am so happy this sweet boy found his family. The difference is remarkable and awe inspiring.
