Surgeon Follow-up

We followed up with Lily's surgeon this week. She is 6 weeks post op and everything has healed well. She will follow up with him again in 6 months, but for now everything looks great and there have been NO complications. He would like for her to begin speech therapy, so we will try to get an evaluation done after Christmas. We had our 6 month post adoption home study done on Wednesday. Everything went well and it was good to see our social worker again. It must be such a rewarding job to see families that have waited so long to finally bring home their precious children. She has been with us from the very beginning. She couldn't believe how long it had been. We first met her back in October of 2006. She remembered how little Mason was...Mason was 4 years old and Morgan was 8. Now Mason is 8 and Morgan is 12. So weird. Who knew it would take so long, but I would wait all over again for our sweet Lily. She is the perfect fit for our family. She brings something to our family that was missing. Every family needs at least one child that....
climbs it if it can be climbed
opens it if it can be opened
explores it if it can be explored
touches it if it can be touched
dumps it if it can be dumped
She knows only one speed and that is running. She loves to dance, loves to laugh, loves shoes, loves the remote control, loves to ride/sit on the dog, loves to be silly, loves her brother and sister beyond words. We love you Lily so much and the special "you" that you bring to our family.
