Whoops

Missed a sort of big one: Micah's 2nd Adoption Anniversary. July 9th or 10th, depending on whether one bases it on physical custody (the 9th) or the actual signing of papers (the 10th), the anniversary completely blew by us. Ooops. He is clueless at present, about adoption that is. Hard to believe that two years ago we were just getting home from our post-China beach week and we had a baby in the house whose only word was "Up!" Now, two years, three trips to the Emergency Room, one toilet later, quite a few people have asked us, 'Does he ever shut up?' And there are times I wish he could be a little quieter, he probably never will shut up - too many people have invested too much time and effort to get him this chatty. So chatty, he even talks in his sleep, which amazes me.


Got his pre-op clearance appointment made for next week, got to get him to the lab for a blood draw. Sigh, that will not be fun. His doctor is lucky because I've completed a good bit of the paperwork.

I'll have to circle September 6th on the calendar, it will be the 5th anniversary of Thea's adoption - and she does understand quite a bit more than Micah about being adopted, and I don't want to forget it in the hoopla and preparation of schools' starting (on the 8th (Micah, I think) and 9th (Thea, again not sure), I just want to make it through August and Scarlett O'Hara the rest for now.
