Home for 6 days already...and he is such a joy!

Well, of course he is! He's OWEN!

He's met people at our high school, people at the Board Office, friends, neighbors...and he always looks for Shannon or me, to make sure his constants are still around. Then, he can go back to playing with the person's necklace or reaching for 'toys' on their desks.

He is eating better on his own--last week I would have said he could get 2 out of 15 Cheerios to his mouth, but this week I'd give him at LEAST 6 of those 15 making it to the right opening in his head (as opposed to his ear or his eye). And he even managed to get some black beans in there last night!

Becca, I love reading about Owen. He's so cute and I'm delighted that he's doing so well.
Keep the beautiful pictures of the special little guy coming.
