Six months ago today Little Lassie joined our home. We are still waiting for the letter that tells us the adoption is final. This still feels unbelievable to me. In the past, I often wondered what our child would be like. I can’t believe I’ve known her for six months already. I keep expecting motherhood to feel less thrilling, but it never does. I haven’t forgotten the pain of infertility, (it can still bring me tears if I dwell on it), but I don’t feel the pain of infertility anymore. People always told me there was light at the end of the tunnel. I didn’t believe them. They were right.

As it once was:
February 4, 2008 Little Lassie’s first day home with us. She struggles to get away from FlyGuy who scares her because he is so big and has such a deep voice.

As it is now.
