I was gifted a great treasure, a baby picture of Junu. Through this blog a very kind person shared this picture of Junu. She was quite certain I was speaking of the same Junu as friends of hers adopted their child from the same orphanage. In a round-about way, Junu's baby picture made it to me. Thank you for your kindness in sharing. I can tell you that the photographer's take on Junu is absolutely spot on, "impishness" was the word I believe. She is full of it and I will be a very busy mother as a result. I wouldn't have it any other way as she is absolutely perfect for me. I love her spunk, her joy of life and her interest in people. She wants to know everything, constantly asking "What's this?" or "Who's this?". She is stifled a bit in her verbal expressive language skills as her comprehension is so great and cognitively she seems she could tell me about more than I even know, but her ability to facilitate her language with gestures, facial expressions, etc. is, shall I say, extraordinary to me. She may be the most expressive child I've known. I am fascinated by it all and once again finding myself so grateful for this most precious child. How was I the one chosen to be her mother? I am so very blessed and thank God for her. I thank God for all the kind people in our lives, there are so many. I feel that both of our lives have expanded in ways we could never imagine. I am very fortunate and remain ever grateful to all of our old friends and now our new friends. Truly, life is constantly expanding...we shall see where we go next.
Thank you again.
