Day 71

Five years ago today, we met the most beautiful baby girl in a conference room in a hotel in China. It was an incredible day that we mark every year. Today that little baby is a beautiful almost six year old. We started the day at Grandma's house - they are truly the best of friends and it was very hard to go home. Tonight we had a feast at a favorite Chinese restaurant with good friends and ended with a gift from her memory box of items I bought on that trip to give her every year to remember that special time when we became a family!
