Jon Felipe


Here is a great picture of Jon Felipe with my nephew Liam during our camping trip (taken by my father-in-law). JF is doing so very well. He has been home for two and a half years now. In the dailiness of life, we forget how far he has come in that time. We are so blessed to have this child in our family. If you are considering adoption of an older child, my advice is to allow time for that bond to develop. These children have a lot of hurt to work through. It truly took about two years for JF to completely trust us. Yes, there are difficult times, much less so than in the beginning, but it is SO worth it. He is SO worth it.
