The annual “look how much my kid has grown” post
Thursday, February 26th, 2009Last year, about this time, I found a recent photo of Anna standing in the kitchen by the sink, and one from the previous year in the same place. So, this year, I took another photo there, and I’m posting all 3 side-by-side.
I haven’t been able to find similar pictures of Will. Not sure why, except that he rarely holds still long enough for me to take a nice posed photo like these. I’ll have to try to duplicate a photo from last year so we can make the same kind of comparison.
On a completely unrelated note, if you have been feeling in need of a good sinus-clearing cry,  please go visit the blog of a China-adoptive family who just lost their 5 year old daughter to acute myelogenous leukemia. It is absolutely heart-rending, and I hope that I could manage just an nth of the strength, courage and faith of that family if I were in a simlar situation. All of my sympathy goes out to this family, and thanks for helping me appreciate our blessings and good fortune just a little more.
