In May of 2010 I brought home my adopted son. He was 5.5 years old from Idaho with a past that would have broken the spirit of many of us. He has been abused and had been kept away from society in his early years. This is our adventure together. His adventure of discovering the world around him, learning, experiencing, and growing, and my adventure of raising him. This is a journal written to him and a way of keeping our memories.

Just One of The Boys
Words can not express how proud I am of you. Not that I do not realize the small accomplishments everyday that you get out of bed and every night as I tuck you in, but tonight you walked onto the lacrosse field, your head held high, stick in hand, and never looked back. You took a deep breath and off you went, just one of the boys, leaving me in the dust!
You ran around with all the other little ones, keeping up to the best of your ability, and cheering on your teammates. Yet again you showed me how much of a little showman you will be and how much personality you have for the world. I am not quite sure the world is fully ready for you when you do finally let down your walls but we are getting there and today was a huge step. I am so very proud of you for all you have accomplished baby.
Keep on Truckin'
Love
Mom
