A BIG DAY!

Why is today a big day you ask? Because today marks 9 months HOME with our daughter. Which means today she has speant as much time WITH US as she did AWAY FROM US. The nine months she spent in Guatemala seemed to inch by painfully, but they sure have flown by on this end. This child, this inspiration, sat on the back bleachers (in her own seat, not in my lap because she is BIG like that) of the gym tonight watching the kids perform on the stage... clapping, waving her arms, dancing, and trying to out perform them. It cracked me up and brought tears of joy to my eyes.

Oh, special day. Every day from here on is "she has spent more time with us than away from us" Isn't it great!!! She gets cuter evey day.

My oh my, you have a brave, talented son. He must get that from his Mom:>)

Happy nine months home!
