This little boy is such a joy to me. His bright eyes and robust personality brings me smiles and laughter. He reminds me so much of Nathan, personality wise. I love that he loves to draw, do school, play with his sister and that he can play for hours building forts and bases for his army guys. I love watching him swim during lessons and he is making so much improvement! He can swim underwater now and loves to jump in. Most of all, I love how sweet and thoughtful he is.
I also can't believe how much he has grown since last year!
On the Hebrew calender, today is his birthday, so I would like to mark this milestone and remember some things about Mali.
