Meet Isaiah
Charming, chubby, cheerful, and.....just plain charming. =)
Meet my beautiful cousin, his "mommy/nanny", Marissa.....
He is a very inquisitive and rather ornery little guy. I fell in love with him right away....even if he did deposit my cell phone in the bottom of the toilet just ten minutes after I met him. =)
(as in....reached his whole arm in there and set the phone at the very bottom of the toilet. In one year old thinking, it was the perfect resting place---and a perfect fit. =))
note: never let a 1-yr. old on the loose with your phone while the bathroom door is open and you are engaged in a deep heart-to-heart with your bestie. bad idea. =)
this is so him. =)
I love the reflective expressions they both have here.....
She gave a year of her life in caring for him. She was the closest thing to mommy he had. He loved her like she was his mommy, and she loved him like he was her son....
Pray for Isaiah! He was re-integrated w/ his father in May and its been a hard transition for both of them. (him & my dear cousin) Imagine living with someone and doing everything with/for them for a year, and then being separated for the rest of your life. It's hard stuff for a little guy to understand.
