Three years ago today we returned home from China. It's hard to believe that our little girl is growing up so fast! We celebrated "Happy Gotcha Day" on March 13. I told Ava that "it was a very special day-Happy Gotcha Day, or the day that we became a family". Her response-"what did you got me Mommy?"
Yesterday we reunited with some of our China travel group. We met in Lexington, and the girls spent the day playing and catching up. We are so lucky to have several of Ava's China sisters living so close in proximity to us. We were fortunate to have an out of state family who traveled to China with us to join our celebration. She practically drove from Chicago to be with us (thanks, Rach!) It's so important for the girls to interact and be together. They don't know it right now, but they have a special bond that I hope will keep them connected for years to come.
