Home with the little dude
What a homecoming. Or friends and family at the airport was the best thing in the world. We were worried that Kobi wouldn't be able to deal with it but....wait for it...he transformed into the happiest little boy you can imagine. He immediately hooked up with the kids, with Jade and Tilly being his favourite. He ran around the airport barefoot and happy. Asking for drinks, grabbing kids by the hand and racing them around and sharing yogurt with Jade. What a little superstar!!!!!
Leaving the airport was difficult for him but we kidnapped his cousin Tilly to come with us. I was amazed at the immediate and iron clad bond he had built with Tilly in the space of an hour. The car seat was not appreciated but he was fine after a few minutes. The ride home on the windy roads was also fine.
Getting home was really fine as well. I have been continually amazed at how well Kobi has settled in. He liked our little dog Dolly strait away but was petrified of the big dog Subi. But by the evening he was OK with her. By this morning he was grabbing her tail.
He slept OK, waking up a few times in the night. But all in all a happy little man. He has been mucking around with Tim today in the garden with the hose.
Each day has been better and better. Tomorrow we might try the car again but we'll see....
I have images and a video to upload but can't do it from the iPad :-(
