Happy Gotcha Day!

One year! I can't believe it! We celebrated today with Chinese food (what else!) and chocolate cake! What a year it's been for us...so many ups and downs. Thank God for the ups! We are blessed beyond belief. Why God has entrusted this sweet girl to us, I have no idea. Sydney is a treasure that's for sure!

Thinking of Mama...

I can't help but think of Mama today. Tonight would have been her last night with Sydney, I'm sure it must have been so difficult for her. Sydney had been with her since she was about 8 weeks old. I will be forever grateful for Mama...

Remembering...

One year ago today we were on our way to China! It's hard to believe. Here are a few pictures from the first few (of MANY) flights. This time last year we were waiting to board our flight to Beijing. The Chicago airport with 3 kids, Uncle Will, the "expectant" parents, and TOO MUCH luggage! We were a sight to see! What an adventure.
