Wow, has it really been that long since my last post? I guess I haven't kept up on Kowin's sight, like I would have liked. I am putting more of him and Henry on our family site. Not a bad thing, but I should probably write a little about Kowin on his site. Bare with me, cause it's long compared to the norm.

I cannot believe that next week he is starting school. We are officially done with Early Intervention programs and have graduated into the school district. I have mentioned that I am a little nervous about this. I know the teachers will be great and that Kowin will learn to love them. I just want the transition to be easy on him. And we are definitely going to miss the educators that helped Kowin come so far. Even though he is an older brother now, he is my little boy. He has been cuddling a ton lately. He loves to give me kisses and make me laugh. The way he dances is constantly changing. Each new move surprises me and keeps me laughing.

I never know how Kowin is going to take to change. The other day when we moved a desk into the family room. He ran right into it. Normally in the past I guide him around the new furniture, let him feel it and explain what it is. Recently he gets around so well on his own I didn't even think about it. Anyway, when we brought Henry home I was a little scared that he would freak out when he heard the baby cry. Nope. He is doing great. He will mimmic my words when Henry cries... "Henry it's okay"... "Shhhhh Henry" .... "Awww what's wrong Henry" I love hearing his sweet voice. Whenever he approaches Henry he is cautious and very gentle. I love it.

Having two boys is just so fun. And Kowin is a good older brother. I watch Henry looking at him sometimes. And I can't wait to watch them grow and play together. Kowin has a very sweet heart, and I hope that Henry is full of love and understanding.

As for Henry. He is one happy baby! I love it. He is growing fast. He's gettin' chub all over. I have already mentioned in our family blog that he has a strong spirit. That hasn't changed. I feel it everyday. He is special. And I don't think it's just to me(his mom) As he grows, I know people will get a chance to feel it as well. I hope as their mom I can be the example and teacher they need. I know it won't be easy, and at times I doubt myself... but I LOVE being their mom.
