Our absolutely amazing Evelyn Grace!





From December 17, 2016

With everything going on with getting Anna home I am ashamed to admit I haven't been very good about updating everyone on how Evie is doing.
Let me just say... this child is absolutely amazing. She is such a joy, and brings so much happiness to our lives.
She has adjusted without a hitch. Attachment has gone amazing... she is friendly with everyone but definitely knows who her momma and daddy are. She eats almost anything, sleeps pretty well and is just the sweetest thing e...ver! She loves to give hugs and kisses more than anything. She is big fan of the cat, but not so much the dogs. She loves playing outside and reading books... but music and dancing are definitely her favorites.
She is super sassy and a little stubborn 😉
Medically she has passed all tests and assessments with flying colors.
She excels in therapies and "school" every time we go! We are very blessed with an amazing program at the local university, and she will stay there until kindergarten. She is doing so well she will actually start mainstream preschool in the fall!
She knows many signs and is even picking up on lots of words. She assessed at the level of about 24 months developmentally which factoring in DS, status as an orphan until now and English being a new language she is actually ahead of where she would be expected to be!
I was just telling a good friend that sometimes I just look at her and can't believe she's really here... she's really ours... FOREVER 💕
