One year ago today

One year ago today, after years and years of waiting and hoping, we boarded the plane to fly to China to get our daughter.
One year ago today I sobbed as I said "goodbye" to my precious boy for 17 long days.
One year ago today I was a nervous, excited, anxious momma as I waited to hold my daughter for the very first time.
One year ago today my sweet girl was still in the orphanage waiting for her forever family to come get her.
One year ago today our life was about to be forever changed-
I am so glad that it did!!

I can't even begin to wrap my brain around that fact that is has been a year since I was glued to my computer waiting for the first pics of Kate with her parents. She is such a blessing to all of us. We love you all so much!!!!
