Home almost 3 weeks

In a couple of days have been home 3 weeks with Grace. This week we are doing tons of blood work and a couple other tests. The blood work today was tough on Grace but she gets over it all quickly and doesn't blame me=) I will post next week with results from all of the tests. Grace is really doing well. Rob and I both cannot believe how far she has come in such a short time. We are seeing more and more of her personality as she gets comfortable with us and her surroundings. She truly is a sweetheart. She is falling asleep so much more peacefully and she wakes up happy to see us! She loves all kids but takes awhile to warm up to adults. Our other kids are not shy so this has been a new thing for us. She is bonding well with Mom and Dad so that is the goal at this point. She really is a good kid. She listens well. She is particular about things which can be hard because of the language barrier. She can't always tell us what she wants and how she wants it=) She understands us so well and say words in English but will need surgery and speech therapy to help her with many of the sounds she cannot say. We continue to be overwhelmed with what a blessing she is to all of us.
