On this day.............

"5" years ago in 2004............


I held your sweet tiny hand for the first time,


I touched your beautiful face that I knew so well from memorizing every detail of your referral photos,

and we were finally together, Mother and Daughter

A Happy Family Forever!!!!!

Happy, happy Gotcha day to your family!! I remember memorizing her referral photo as well. Your family will always hold a special place in my heart as you were our first "fellow adoptive" family (is that a phrase? I think I just made it up!)

Look at the amazing girl she has grown into. I remember her bewilderment and wonder at everything around her when you first brought her home...and look at her now. Gorgeous!
