I decided to do something a little different today. Ethan has been getting a lot of attention lately, and I can tell that Rian feels left out sometimes. It was especially evident at the hospital the other day. Some people came to visit and they were all talking about babies, but Rian found that boring and decided it would be more interesting for everyone to look at his soccer pictures from last summer, which I happened to have on my computer.
He started pulling the soccer pictures up on the screen and talking about them, but nobody really listened. It made me sad for him. As the youngest of 3, I remember what it was like being little and everyone being excited about something that I didn't appreciate or understand, and wanting to turn the attention of the room back to myself.
So, as cute and adorable as Ethan is right now, I want to show you a video that I made that is all about Rian. Rian is learning about some exciting things, and one of those is learning how to read. Today he brought home a book from school, so I sat down with him while Ethan was taking a nap and he read it to me.

ReplyDeleteI'm a friend of your Aunt Amy. We have 2 girls with throats like Ruby's and came from the same orphanage. If you want to pray for them their names are Mercy and Joy!
Keep up the wonderful reading you're doing so good!
