Happy Birthday Artiom!!!

It's Toma's 6th birthday today!

The first time in his whole life that he has a family on his birthday to love him and sing Happy Birthday to him :)

He had chocolate cake but was a bit crabby about it and certainly didn't want to wear the stupid birthday hat!!! His words, not mine. Well, ok, he can't talk, but I could tell that's what he was thinking ;)

These aren't the best pictures, because our camera is on the blink so these are from a cell phone. But they're better than nothing, I guess :)

He spent much of the day in his pool, well....until he p0*ped in it :)

Water is still his fascination. He NEVER tires of it. Easy kid :) Water and an empty milk jug, and he's in HEAVEN.

Happy Birthday little guy! We are so grateful to have you in our family!

Adoption truly is a beautiful thing.....
