Dallas James . . .

I love this boy so very much. I can't even put into words how proud I am that

he is my son. He is such a kind and gentle soul. He is always so cautious of new things and his gentle spirit amazes me. He is doing well at our new house too. He loves his new room and likes to swim in our pool, very cautiously of course! He doesn't want to go under the water or get his face wet. We have been going to story time at the library and I let him check out 10-15 books each week. He loves it and it has really sparked his interest in books all over again. He wants to read and read and can't wait to go and get new books. He is starting a daddy and son soccer program on the 9th and it is five weeks long. I really am excited for him to experience something new and special with just Daddy. I think he is going to love it. I am still waiting on a spot for him for preschool and should know at the end of the week. But if all goes well he will be starting next Tuesday. I am nervous and excited for him. I hope he does well because I really think he needs to meet some new kids. I feel bad because I hinder his artsy side at home because Phoebe wants to do everything with us and even simple things like coloring are difficult with her involved. I love this kid more than he will ever know and am truly blessed to be his mama. God was smiling on me when he handed me Dallas' precious heart.
