A Gift for Liam




For Wally's first Christmas, our friends, Dave and Cecelia, got Wally a Baby Tad. He has been a constant companion for Wally.

A few weeks ago, Baby Tad stopped signing, talking and playing music. This was very traumatic for Wally. We talked about it being our turn to sign for Baby Tad. Wally really needed a new friend. We found him a new friend, Scout. Scout plays more music and knows Wally's nickname, favorite color and favorite breakfast food. Wally adores him!

While cuddling before bedtime, Wally told me he would like to get a present for Baby Liam (his little brother due in a few weeks.) I asked what he would like to get him. He said, I know the perfect present for him, Mom. I want to get him a Scout just like mine." I thought it was so sweet of Wally to think of getting Liam a gift. The fact that he wants to get him something that could provide Liam with the comfort and happiness Scout has given him is just the icing on the cake. I am sure we will be heading out to get another Scout before Liam's arrival.
