Ian, baby #3

on sunday we received a new addition to the makarios family: Ian!
Ian was neglected and abandoned by his mother and when he was six months old, a canadian lady took him in. she had him for 11 months and then moved back to canada. then another family took him in for six weeks, but they too are leaving. so now we have him! it's sad that he has been passed around, but this is much better than the alternative. he's 17 months and is the size of a 3-4 month old, so we are pumping the food into him. apparently he's never been a good eater - wouldn't eat off of a spoon, mainly drank a bottle - but we've been giving him all kinds of baby food, and he's eating it up! our number one plan is to fatten him up. he's behind developmentally in many ways, but we've already seen progress in the last 4 days, so we're hopeful that he will catch up. please pray for Ian!
