I was just looking through our trip photos the other day and stopped at his picture - remembering the sweet, shy boy who seemed to have a smile in there somewhere. I love that not only has he found his smile in a BIG way, but that he has such a wonderful family to share it with. You are certainly blessed with that little man!
