This is Rob. We're here! Samuel is in our room. He has smiled and smiled from the first moment we met him. He is so aware of people! His foster mom and her 79-year-old mother made a five-hour journey to bring him to us. They were lovely, lovely people and had plenty of advice, kindness, and good wishes for us.
Samuel is beyond words beautiful. I think I'm mainly hypervigilant about keeping him alive for the next several days at this point. He's been crying quite a bit. Lord knows why. Currently he's sucking on his fingers a bit... so far we haven't gotten him to eat or poop (but it's only been a few hours). Every time we try to feed him he starts crying. Perhaps he's constipated. Melanie and Joyce are hovering over him as I type, trying to get him to poop. Melanie keeps doing funny little things with him, saying, "I saw Ruthie do this with Judah" as she does.
Melanie is sky high. I'm sure you'll hear from her at some point.
I'd send pictures, but for some reasonn all the instructions on the blogsite are in spanish right now. Everything in my life is in spanish right now! As soon as I figure out how, I'll send some.
love to you all,
Rob
