One Month Since Gotcha Day

Happy One Month with Mommy and Daddy Nicholas!

Where has time gone? It was exactly 10:00 AM, on February 1st, when our car pulled inside the gates of Baby Home #1. I remember thinking how bittersweet this was. We were taking Nick from everything he knew, yet, opening a window of opportunity to so much more.

The woman holding Nick in this picture, is the doctor in staff at Baby Home #1. She took good care of Nick during his stay there, and was patient with us and sooooo cooperative as we asked so many questions during our first trip. We took this picture right before we changed him into the clothes we brought, and whisked him away.

I remember people telling me that the agony of waiting would be a distant memory once we had him with us. I didn't believe it, now I do.

And on that note, off I go. I hear someone babbling through the baby monitor. Time for a snack and a bath.

It's good to hear that the agony is a distant memory. And, it is hard to believe.

Time will fly. Before you realize it, Nick will be getting on the school bus. Each moment of each day will be a memory that you will cherish.
