Susanne at Living to Tell the Story hosts this carnival every Friday for people to list their five favorite things for the week.
This week I'm going to take the opportunity to make a little announcement. A looong while ago we mentioned that we were pursuing an adoption and I'm delighted to be able to tell you that Bookworm2 has taken up residence with us here in our log home. He has been an utter delight and a joy and I'm so very happy to be in a position to share our joy with you.
Usually we try to avoid posting photos of our kids on the Internet, but for this grand occasion we'll make an exception! So this week it's Five Things about Bookworm2 That I Am Fond Of:
1. These two sweet, kissable dimples.....

3. I love that his nose wrinkles up when he starts

4. I'm grateful for the moments of his life that we have been able to celebrate with him. Celebrating children's milestones is typically delightful and we love finding things to celebrate as a general rule. His birthday this past week was an especially wonderful thing to get to be a part of as his mother, father and FAMILY!

5. I'm seriously grateful for the bond that has developed already (in full force!) between Bookworm1 and Bookworm2. They make each other laugh. Bookworm1 asks to include Bookworm2 in everything that we're doing. Quite simply - they belong and they are brothers.

Congratulations!!! I love those dimples. That picture makes me want to kiss his little face all over (just like I do the dimples on my own kids). How sweet that they hold hands!! Reminds me of when we brought Ellie home from the hospital. Ben reached over and held her hand all the way home. It's a wonderful thing to watch friendship grow between siblings. :)
Well! This is wonderful news indeed! With dimples like that, how could you resist sharing them with the world?!
