Baby Peter is walking!
It takes him a while to get his footing,
he finally manages,
but then, there's no stopping him
He's so pleased with himself
"Watch me, Mommy!"
I have no idea what is up with his tongue.
I guess he has to concentrate.
He made it across the yard!
He has made it even farther than that!
Look at this picture and then look at the one above it.
Can you believe it's the same baby?
P.S I know I said I'd write more about what I'm teaching on feelings, but it's Friday. I thought today needed something a bit lighter and celebratory.
Wow! Peter's growth is amazing! How much time had passed between the two photos?
ReplyDeleteHurray Peter!! So cute. The before and after pictures are very powerful. Well done, Amy and team!! Well done!
ReplyDeletePam, that first picture was taken just over a year ago when Peter came to live with us.
ReplyDeleteWow! No, that absolutely does not look like the same baby. How exciting that Peter has made such amazing progress!! It's a real testament to your work there, that you have fed and loved him back from the brink of death. I know there is an overwhelming amount of heartbreak in your work- it's just part of the nature of life in Africa- but, the successes are so huge as well. Thank you for shouldering all that responsibility- and for sharing the success photos with us!
ReplyDeleteWow! What an amazing transformation, I remember the first photos of him - he is actually chubby :-)
ReplyDeleteOMG. I can't believe how far he's come. You guys are really providing a place for God to bless people.
