On Saturday morning we ventured out to our nearby state park, the same park I wrote about
here.
Shu then, October 2011. Worn in hip carrier for several hours, then fell asleep in stroller. And that sad face was not the exception. He was like that 99% of the day.
Shu yesterday, August 2012.

Staring at an airplane, maybe? |

This is still his default face when the camera comes out. |
He wanted to
walk, people. This is my child who still exudes anxiety talking a walk down the sidewalk through our neighborhood! "No hand. No hand," said my child, who six weeks ago could not put two words together.
I wrote this in last October's post:
We have come a good way down the path, but the road which leads to
healthy attachment, love, and trust stretches long ahead of us. And
there is nothing to do but walk on.
And so we continue to walk on. There is plenty of journey ahead, but we've put more miles behind us now, and it feels good. Seeing Shu enjoying life along with the rest of us was a great blessing.

My first and only intentional "belly pic" so far this pregnancy. Figured I'd better get one. |

Dad and his ducklings |

Oh, Jerusha! Look how far Shu and you have come on this journey! I love his face for the camera. What a beautiful family you have. Hope you're feeling great as you wait to meet your little one!
I love how much he's changed/grown! Seriously, the pics tell it all! I know the road is still long and still has some struggles for you guys, but doesn't it feel good to be in the "home stretch" and know that slowly but surely God is working on his little heart!
