Happy Halloween!

Well, I do love Halloween.  I always enjoy seeing the cute kids in their costumes, all things pumpkin, and trick-or-treating.  Today was a special Halloween because we got a much anticipated update on Charlie, AND our fingerprinting appointment from USCIS came in the mail! 
I had asked about his height and weight, whether or not he wanted to be adopted, his sleeping arrangement, etc.  We found out he is a lanky thing, like Stephen.  We could tell he was from his pictures, but his height to weight ratio is wider than we expected.  A bean pole is what he is!  They said he definitely wants a family of his own and will get sad and act out when other kids have been adopted.  He has his own bed and sleeps in a room with a few other boys.  The caregiver to child ratio at Bethel is 1:3.  Crazy, unheard of, but wonderful.  I'll take it!


Charlie is the one on the left, having a great time with his buddies, playing in the leaves!  Looks like he loves Fall like me!
