The Elle Train

My big sister (who I adore) has been in town, so I missed my Friday Elle Train where I usually post something my eight year old said or did because she's amazing and autistic and one-of-a-kind and wonderful, and through her eyes the world is mostly rainbows and sunshine.

But today I'm posting about my precious six year old, Max, who we adopted from Thailand almost two years ago. Truth be told, the adoption process has been messy and, by far, the hardest thing I've ever done.  But its also been beautiful and life-changing for the better.

Here's a glimpse of the good stuff...

Max: Our world is so lucky, right mom?

Me: What do you mean?

Max: We have video games in Burger King and toys in Target and money.

Me: Yeah, that's true. But what's the best part of our world, bud?

Max: A family.

LOVE. IT.
