Sam and his baby sister

I usually write posts about the process or what the latest hoop is that we had to jump though was. This time, it is about Sam. He is one of the main reasons we are adopting. He desperately wants to be a big brother and has been asking for a sibling for several years now. Sam is very social and loves to be with other kids, he would do well in a house with several other kids. That won't happen, but he will have one younger sister. He is so excited about his baby sister and talks about her all the time. He has her whole life planned out for her. Her favorite color will be purple, she will like pandas, she will go swimming with him and she will dresses. I hope she does not mind he has already decided these things for her.

Yesterday while at Grandpa School, my dad asked him if his baby sister was going to attend Grandpa School. Sam said no. Grandpa asked why. Sam told him that his baby sister was going to be "more normal" like mommy and not weird. He said it was OK for him and Baby Jenna to be weird and go to Grandpa School, but not his baby sister. That kid is so funny.

In case you are wondering, Grandpa School is where Sam goes in the morning before real school. He loves Grandpa School and learns so much there. My dad is the teacher at Grandpa School since it is at his house.
