Luke's New Life





Luke is doing great and he seems to enjoy many of the things I do. He loves to clean and he asks me if he can vacuum every day. What a blessing that is for a mom! He's actually very good at it and he can vacuum our entire main floor. He's also fallen in love with dressing up as a doctor. I had him do this to prepare him for the many appointments that he has coming up. It was a success because his first appointment went well and he wasn't too afraid of the doctor. He smiled big and tried to use the stethoscope on the doctor. He's a strong little boy and I admire how much he's had to endure in the last 3 weeks.

He also loves to dance and listen to music. We went to Borders and I couldn't get him to leave the CD area. I think that he listened to each of the CD's in the players. We'll have to wait and see what kind of music he likes...right now he likes it all.

His English is coming along nicely. He can say many words in English now. He hasn't put words together yet and mostly uses one word to ask for something. Yesterday he did say, "Mama, blanket please" and I almost couldn't believe my ears. We're going to see BIG changes in the coming weeks.

So sweet! Are you off work for a while? Who will watch him when/if you go back? I am so happy for you!

I love the updates! Luke is a blessing and such a sweet boy! I might need to borrow him, so he can teach my children how to clean the floors. Too cute!
