My son has always been the sweet affectionate one since we met him in Guatemala at the age of 14 months.
He was originally shy and quiet. He did not walk, he did not talk. We were worried the health reports we had received were wrong.
Then he warmed up to us, especially me. He spent the next three days in country kissing me as often as he could. Sometimes he would grab me by the hair and plant one on my cheek.
Then when we got him home he was terrified of the dogs so I had to carry him around the house for weeks.
He then became attached to our one year old border collie. They would steal something and hide under the table together with it. The dog stuck her tongue in his mouth every time she could get away with it but TG that stopped.
We did go through the first year with some minor health problems but all is okay now.
He is still affectionate and shy but he discovered a love for baseball that is uncanny for a three year old
He actually watches it. He cant read but he can pick it out the the TV guide lineup.
He is also very good at Wii sports and has learned to get himself on PBS kids online and play games
He is good at gymnastics, loves swimming, and ice skating, although his skills in the later two need work.
He follows his big sister around the house (which she hates) and they have a love/hate relationship.
He goes to school now so he can work on his speech. Words he says well include candy, baseball, chips, you need to wipe my butt.
