Day 238
He is a little boy of wonder, that Theodore James. Last year at this time he had been here only a month, today his old soul is wiser. He speaks as if we understand. He points with assertiveness and we do exactly what he wants. He is cautious with his smiles but full when he lets go. His little one year old body is strong and saturated with good health. His little hands hold the things he is curious about while his little neck moves with agility twisting to see things he must see. This boy truly lives.
Today, Theo and I know one another and communicate with no words. But soon, we will, in our native tongue, express our thoughts and there will be no turning back. Children are a marvel but this boy enchants.
