Day 21: "Noah Thomas"

Noah Thomas


From the first time I laid eyes on Noah I knew he was going to be my little crazy man! He has so much energy and never.stops.moving!!! But in those rare moments, when he does stop, or slow down, he always has the sweetest kiss ready to dish out, when he's too busy to give kisses, he'll bow his head, so I can give him a kiss on top of it! Noah is also working with a speech therapist and for him, we knew he just needed a little extra one-on-one and he'd find words soon enough, and here his is a little over 3 months into therapy and he's got 2-word phrasing and knows everyone's names! I am truly amazed at how rapidly his speech and communication has blossomed! One of the sweetest things he says is "Are you okay?" When some one falls, or says "ow" or cries, he's the first to go over and pat their head, and ask with real concern in his voice, "Are you okay?" Even more sweet than that, is his love of singing and dancing, he knows theme songs for many of the PBS shows we watch, Thomas is his favorite by far, he'll dance and sing every time the song plays at the end of the show.

All of these children are mine, ALL MINE! Still, 2.5 years later, I'm in awe of how many children we have, I truly never pictured my life as it has become, and I'm so lucky. Sure, I have many days that I'm not sure about where we are, but really, these kids are amazing, true miracles and watching them grow and having such a huge part in how awesome they are, well, that's something I'd never change!
