A special homecoming - 2 years ago today...

The most joyous time of our lives.  At this point, we were so glad to be home after the arduous journey(s) (both the five and half years of waiting and the 14 plus hours of flying).  And, looking back on it now, I. would. not. change. a. minute. of. it.  

Our girls are so worth every second of that wait and the hair-raising realization that we didn't know what the hell we were doing while we were in Ch*na :); but we knew if we made it through those 5 and a half years of waiting, we could make it another two weeks in Chin*.  

I was so at peace while we were in Ch*na; I knew that was exactly where and with whom I was supposed to be.  My arms were as full as my heart and continue to be so today.

To my daughters, my heart would be hollow without you; you are the reason I breathe.  I would lay down my life for you.
