Retro

One year ago today....
we left for China to get our Lucy!

Early in the morning our friend Mike took us to the
airport.

One of my boys is a morning person...one is not.
You figure out who's who.


The flight. The long.long.long.flight.

Wow - a year already! I bet big "Gotcha Day" celebrations are planned. And to think there's another Gotcha Day right around the corner. How exciting. :)

Celebrating your hugin' home day! Oh, can just imagine the day when we bring our Ethiopian hugs and kisses home at last.

Rejoicing with you,
Sarah Dawn

I'm sure you can still feel EVERY emotion, every smell and every thought you had on that journey. I know I do, and it's been almost 3 years for us. I can't wait to make new ones REAL soon!!! Still praying for your LOA to come sweeping in on the wings of a DOVE ( or DHL, FEDEX or whatever it takes!!)

Susan said...

oh MORE MORE!!! More details and memories.. Please :)

We nicknamed our flight to China as our 15+ hour MRI
That's pretty accurate wouldn't you agree?
Congrats on your year and your year to come!!!

Hey!! I had no idea you left for China on the 29th. Way cool! The 29th of May is the day TWO years ago that we received word that China had reversed their decision and said "yes" to our precious Isaiah!! Great day to celebrate!!

Yippee Jesus!! And tell the K-man I love the necklace....he looks stunning...
