A day to remember

Today, I feel like we really covered a lot of territory, Ritesh and I.  Starting with the poor little guy essentially being submitted to torture at his medical exam (who knew measuring height and weight would cause that level of distress - or to be more accurate, battle) to a total blow out (diaper that is) to a few hours of full on play for the first time in our little home in Hotel Tibet, with running back and forth, tickling, massive giggling - what a total treat!   By the way,I have not mentioned that my child is brilliant. On our first day together, I showed him the sigh for "more" a couple of times when I was feeing him, and the next morning when he wanted more food, he put his two little hands together to very precisely make the sign.

What a joy to see him take joy in his world and the world around him.
