Anniversary of sorts
One year ago today, a trembling, scared ball of fur entered our home and our lives haven't been the same since.
These were taken April 24, 2009.
She was so tiny then.
Jinx today:
Definitely not the scared little puppy anymore.

Nine
Nine years ago today Shawn and I stood before our family and friends and pledged our love and lives together.
Happy anniversary my love! Here's to many more years together.

Anniversary of Sorts
Seven years ago this month we decided to start a family. Didn't quite work out the way we anticipated.
Three years ago today, I told Shawn I was ready to adopt. I didn't think (like most) that we would still be waiting for our first child. So I guess this didn't quite turn out the way we anticipated either. There are days when I wonder if it will happen at all. I'm really starting to have my doubts.
And on that note, Happy Valentine's Day everyone!

Eight
Eight years ago I married my best friend, my rock and my soul mate. I can't believe how quickly the time has gone by. I can't wait to see what this year brings us!
Love you forever Shawn!

Seven years...
...and still going strong. Seven years ago today, Shawn and I stood under the chuppah and were married. I am very lucky to have found this wonderful man with whom I share my life with. Shawn is my best friend, my soulmate, my rock and my tech support :). I can't imagine what my life would be like without him.
My wonderful husband sent me these beautiful flowers today, it was a treat to receive them at work.
I created this montage of some more recent pictures, although I did put in a couple from our wedding.
While we were away, we decided to mark our seventh anniversary by renewing our vows. It was a very solemn and sacred moment. We had it recorded so we could share it with all our family and friends that weren't able to be there with us. I hope you all enjoy it as much we did. (Can you guess where we went? If not, wait til the next post).

New Families
This month is significant for Shawn and I for a couple of reasons. This month marks our 5th anniversary that we decided to start a family. That's more than half our marriage. What we thought was suppose to be simple and straigtforward turned out to be very, very complicated.
Yesterday marked the one year anniversary that I told Shawn I was ready to go through the adoption route to create our family. It took me a long time to realize that I don't need to be pregnant in order to be a mom, and I wanted to be a mom more than I wanted to be pregnant. To celebrate, we met Mark and Michelle at the airport to see the new families come back home with their beautiful daughters from China. I got very emotional when the families started coming out. I never thought I would for people I don't really know. Then I saw a grandma run up to greet her new granddaughter and I just lost it. It was nice to see that but it brought a lot of emotions to the surface. I thought of my mom and how that's something she would've done. Heck, she'd be fighting off security to let her into the passenger only section if it meant meeting her granddaughter that much sooner. I miss her so much.
We then went to dinner at The Lone Star with Mark and Michelle and as always it was a wonderful evening.
Congrautlations to all the new families and welcome home!
