Hudson (my 11 year old nephew) just celebrated his 10th anniversary of coming to live with my sister and her family. Can you believe how much he has grown? Some of you may remember his birth mother was an alcoholic and didn’t care enough to get help while she was pregnant with twins. His twin sister didn’t make it. He’s got so many health problems, but he does so much more than anyone ever expected, every single day. Do you have any then and now pictures you want to share?

I don't think I was around, or at least we didn't comment back and forth at the time so I don't remember that... but that is good to hear how he is doing, and he has grown so much I can see from the photos!

He looks like a little doll in that picture, doesn’t he? Amyra was four when they got him, and she pushed him around in a fake shopping cart telling my sister it was a lot more fun when she was playing with a real baby. Lol

Yes, but he needed human growth hormone to get there. He’s still undersized, but what does that really matter.

I can’t believe how grown-up he is. I remember when he was just a teeny tiny thing.

He is really growing up! I know he has a lot of health problems but I am so glad he is part of your special family, Amber.
