Our Adoption Day

One year ago today, April 3, 2007, we met our son. In some ways, this day is more monumental to us than Tommy's birthday because it is the day we became a family. The day we had worked towards for months, traveled around the world for, and wanted for a very long time.

We've been looking through our pictures from our trip to Vietnam, and of course, of the day we met Tommy. Looking back at those first pictures, we realize what lucky parents we are to have such a happy and easy-going baby. We were so fortunate that he bonded almost instantly with us - there was no grieving, no wailing, no signs of distress, and for that we are very thankful to his nannies at the Tam Ky Baby Centre.

Tommy, we love you more than we could ever have imagined.

Has he ever grown! It's hard to believe it has only been a year!

You guys haven't changed a bit! Tommy sure has! We have to get K&K to meet us at Mykha's soon. The slide show is awesome. Seems like a long time? or a flash?

He looks so little there - but still so chunky!
