After 4 months of having a wiggly tooth, and one more apple in his lunchbox, Jackson finally lost his first tooth! He is so cute with his little gap, but he's self-conscious about it. He asked me on the way home from camp if we needed to call the tooth fairy. I didn't expect that question, but I assured him the tooth fairy just "knows" these things. He told me not to check on him tonight in case I disturbed TF.
I also just realized that I didn't get all of Wilson's description in the previous blog entry. Maybe I exceeded the space limit-whatever, I'm still learning. But I can copy and psste so here's the rest of it:
Wilson is very loving- spontaneously hugs people and “goes to” them. Easy to get a smile from him, too. Although he doesn’t use too many words, he communicates just fine w/ gestures and grunts. He’s so precious and gorgeous that people fall over themselves trying to do for him. He’s also a tinkerer. He can work on toy cars and other things with an impressive concentration. Every night when I put him to bed, I tell him that I love him no matter what; that I will always be his mom; and that he will always be my baby. I must admit that I have not completely recovered from the repeated devastating delays that we endured throughout his incompetent adoption. I am certain that I know what a broken heart feels like. I do not believe that it is God’s will that he was separated from me for almost 19 months. But I am very grateful for the time we have now and that he calls me mom.
