Today we took Drew apple picking - Drew LOVES apples - he eats them all the time and talks about eating them all the time...so he was very excited to see all the apple trees. He had fun pulling the apples down, though he wanted to eat them all instead of putting them in the bag...he had lots of bites! He liked the pumpkins too, but they weren't nearly as exciting as the apples...obviously!!
Drew enjoyed going to temple for Yom Kippur this week - he LOVES the Torah!! He talked about it quite a bit and liked kissing it as it came around. At one point, near the very end of the servvice on Thursday, the ark was open for Neilah (not spelling right I know) and it was pretty quiet and Drew pointed at the Torahs and said, "Mommy, Torah!!" - he was pretty loud, I thought it was funny, but not sure others did..oh well...
I'm still trying to get a date for his conversion...they usually only do them during the week, but I'm trying to get it for a Sunday, so I need to check on that this week...can't wait to get him converted and named already!!
It was a year ago this weekend that Patrick and I left for Kazakhstan - having no idea what to expect or who our child would be...a year later I can't imagine that there ever could have been another child meant to be ours...we are very lucky.
