Now that I'm done dragging you to China and back, we can get back to Life At Hand.
Although there's a bit of catching up to do.
After all, it did take me AN ENTIRE MONTH to revisit that silly trip.
Gracious sakes...y'all are a loving, faithful crowd.
All two of you.
(Hi Mom. Hi Dad.)
So "Gotcha Day" is a term used in adoption circles--representing the day that the child was given to the parents. On February 5th of this year, we celebrated our one year anniversary of seeing the Suz for the first time.
All five of us took the train downtown--here's a few of us waiting at a stoplight:
And how 'bout a close-up of that girl?
Where were we going, you ask?
P.F. Chang's!
[Little commercial break there...]
But who was the happiest of them all?

"Oh happy day (oh happy day)
Oh happy day (oh happy day)
When my server brought (when my server brought)
When my server brought (when my server brought)
Kung Pao my way!"

But who was the happiest of them all?
Sister Susie, who brightens her world wherever she goes.
Who would have thought one year ago that the tiny little baby, lethargic and sick--could have held such joy in her heart?
*We* didn't.
But now we know.
[Hey Suz?]
[We gotcha. And we're glad we did.]
