While we were sleeping...

...a gift was delivered.

There are new pictures of Noah. But this time, there was a little something extra in the gift...pictures of his foster parents.

I have some of Kaycee's too. It is something that will be wonderful to share with them. I showed a picture of them to Kaycee a little while ago. There was no indication that she remembered them. She was 21 months old, had only been with them for about 3 months, and it had been over a year since she had seen them. Tells me she wasn't really attached to them that much. I don't have a picture of her first set, she was with them for over a year.

Anyway, with Noah's foster parents they seem so happy. Kaycee's never smiled in any of the pictures. Noah's seem truly happy. The source I have says that they really love Noah. It is evident in the photo.

I am sad for him. He is in a very loving home right now (at least that is what it looks like.) In just a few short months, his life will be turned upside down! I am praying for him every day that his transition will be as smooth as Kaycee's was. But Kaycee wasn't attached - Noah is.

There is so much to be thankful for that Noah is attached. I know it sounds like it doesn't make sense, but because of his attachment to them he will be able to attach to you. I'd be more worried if he weren't attached. While the original transition may be harder, in the long run his attachment to you will go deeper. How exciting to get new pictures!

He is such a sweet heart! :) Teresa's right. If he is attached to his foster family, that means he can attach to you. Good news all the way around. It probably will be a little bit more difficult at first, but in the long run it will be so worth it. Can't wait to meet our new little guy!
