MORE OTONIEL INFORMATION!

I spoke with Marie today and received a lot of sweet information about Otoniel. She spent time with him and Brenda, his foster mother, while she visited Guatemala a couple of weeks ago. I have to share some of this with you... :)

First, she said he seems to be a very happy boy. He's had no major illnesses since his foster mother has been caring for him. He knows his colors and can say his numbers to 10 (not necessarily in order) :). He loves to play ball and comes in VERY dirty after playing! (Yep, he and Keegan will get along just fine!). He eats about anything (although rice isn't his favorite). He loves chicken prepared just about any way, and he loves mangos, watermelon and ICE CREAM! HE IS A HUFF!!! He sleeps by himself and all through the night! He seems to be doing well with his foster family. Brenda says he knows he is in the process of being adopted and seems to understand. Brenda also said that he needs a lot of love (Got that one covered! - He will be loved and LOVED A LOT!) He's really good with other children and loves firetrucks and bicycles. Brenda also said he is a very sensative little boy. She said he answers to "Eduany" and "Otoniel". When they asked him what he wanted to be called (this is toooooo cute!), he said "Eduany Otoniel!" Makes perfect sense to me!

I absolutely cannot wait to see him!
