Tonight is the annual dinner for the Saint Boniface Foundation. This is the organization responsible for our becoming parents for the 7th time. Not only did we find out about Pipo through a good friend who is now their programming director, but the Saint Boniface hospital, and there wonderful doctors, are what kept Pipo going until we could get him here. Pipo's specialist here in Boston is continually commenting on how well he is doing, and how amazing it is that they were able to keep him going all that time in Haiti considering their limited resources. We are forever thankful for the good care that he recieved from Saint Boniface.
Pipo was very excited to get dressed up for this dinner tonight. He looks forward to it every year. So many people that work in Haiti attend each year, and it is so nice to hear stories about our son when he was small. It's so great for the people there to see a success story too. All of these people knew Pipo when he was very sick, so it is incredible for them to se him happy, healthy and thriving.
And I must say... he is an incredibly good looking kid! (Not that I am a biased mom or anything!

You're right. He is an incredibly handsome boy!!! :)
Totally handsome!
Yup, he's so handsome and will be. But it's the inner light of his face, thriving in this house and family that is the marker that makes him shine. Great pic!
I love his hair. Is it hard to do?

I'm just now catching up on your blog (geesh). Pipo is a truly handsome young man. What an amazing blessing he gets to go to that dinner every year -- and what an amazing blessing we can see he is to you and all who love him. Precious!
