Meetcha Day---1 year anniversary

I felt I should blog about such an important day yet I don't totally know what to say. (Shocked aren't you? Ha) It just doesn't seem possible that it was a year ago that we meet our sweet little boy. I look at the pictures of our "first holds" and I'm instantly taken back to that exact moment in time. It is so completely breath-taking. There are no words to describe how it felt to hold that little boy for the first time. We loved him before we even knew if he was a he or a she. We loved him more when we learned of his name and saw his face. Was it possible to love him more? We already felt pretty attached even though we had never met him. A year ago when we pulled up to those black gates of Hannah's Hope we thought we would do paperwork first. We were barely there and one of the ladies said, "Do you want to see your baby?" Oh my goodness!!! Tears!!! Holding Kobe for the first time filled our hearts even fuller than they already were. It was one of the most amazing feelings in the world. Some parts of our trip are so vivid and yet there are parts that are such a blur. What an amazing experience. We are so thankful we said "yes" when God placed adoption on our hearts. We knew we would be blessing a child as well as the child blessing us. Little did we know just how much this child would bless us and all those he would meet. WE are truly the blessed ones. We love this little boy so much and can't imagine life without him.
