Today concludes six months with N as part of our family. That is an important number because it means we can now officially apply to finalize the adoption. During the last six months she has officially been a ward of our placement agency in California. We have now completed four post placement visits and will shortly be asking ICAB's consent to finalize the adoption.
It has been an amazing six months. We continue to marvel at how well N is doing with the transition. She seems to have accepted all of our family as being hers. Now not everything is perfect. We definitely have our moments and everybody is still adjusting to the new look of our family.
This past week N started swim lessons. She was very excited, very worried and then very excited again. In the end she had a blast. Although she does like to ask why a lot. Why swimming lessons? Why brush teeth? Why is it time for bed? This is great though, because she also asks "what does that mean," a lot. Like when we were driving home from swim lessons and she decided to tell me "that's so weird" followed by "Daddy what does weird mean?" Although her spoken language is great for only being in the country six months we are coming to realize she doesn't always know the meaning of what she is saying.
