Gotcha Day

We have our sweet boy and he is perfect! Right now he is sitting on my lap eating Cheerios! He loves cheerios - he is on his third bowl of them. He cried at the orphanage when he was leaving his nannies but has been very content since we left. He loves his little cars and his cheerios! Jason is out finding us dinner and I will write more details and have more pictures in the morning. Thank you all so much for your prayers - Silas is a miracle!

I started screaming and Madelynn and Tim came running to see what was wrong with me and I said I am fine, They finally got Silas. What a great gift from our Heavely Father. We can't wait to see the whole family. Love, Ms. Sylvia
