All is going well. Joni is talking constantly now, loves playing with other kids, is very helpful and well behaved. She is silly, funny, smart, and perceptive. We love her dearly and are so thankful she is a part of our family. Adoption and Joni have changed us in amazing ways for the good. She continues to struggle with some food obsession, doesn't show any empathy towards others, only tolerates (doesn't seem to enjoy and only rarely initiates) affection, and occasionally treats her brother like he's a threat to her survival. The mommy and daughter bond continues to grow but we'd still love your prayers. We are looking forward to celebrating her adoption day in a few weeks. Can't believe it's only been two years since we brought her home!
Oh my goodness. She has gotten so big! The time has gone by way too fast. Thanks for sharing.
