We started this post just a few weeks ago so that we could journal our experience through adoption. As the weeks have gone by, it has become so much more than that. Many of our family members live throughout the United States and it is nice to be able to share with them what is going on with ALL the family, not just Claire. We talk so much about our adoption and our daughter in Vietnam, that sometimes we don't talk about the two awesome blessings we already have. Let me tell you what a privilege it is to hug and kiss these little guys each night before bed. They are incredible each in their own little way. Easton is 6 and very mature. He enjoys the outdoors, sports of all kinds, and also things like books and movies. We just started chapter books with him and he LOVES it. We are currently reading The Boxcar Children. He is a very "sweet hearted" child. Keaton is just as great, but their personalities are very different. Keaton is 3 and not in such a hurry to grow up. He would jump at the chance to snuggle with his "ket" (blanket) and a binky at any given time. He would be ok with being pushed in a stroller until he is 10, and he still is very content with staying close by his mom or dad. Keaton is by far our little clown and loves to make people laugh. He is not very serious about much of anything, and we love that. Keaton is happy just letting time go by and having fun.
I can only imagine what little sister will be like. Easton, Keaton or somewhere in the middle. Either way we hope they all know that no matter who they are, we love them.
