Lucia was so precious and when she felt a little overwhelmed by it all she just snuggled into her daddy's neck.

It was quite an adventure for all of them!

Rob said he wouldn't cry until he saw me... he was crying before me... but his tears didn't help me keep my tears contained! It was amazing to be a part of such a special reunion!

I just looked at these...again. What a day! It was an amazing ride. And it continues to be!
I was looking thru Blogs, and i came across Yours. The pictures of your family adopting that sweet little girl melted my heart. I was getting teary eyed as i looked at the pictures. Congrats to you and your family!
