Happy Gotcha Day

It is amazing that a whole year since July 21 st 2014 has gone by. It seems only yesterday we piled into the very hot Civil Affairs office in Nanchang, China and met our new daughter for the very first time. She was so nervous and so were we. Now, it's been a year since she's been home and what a year it has been, filled with ups and downs and every emotion in between. Has it been easy? No but has it been worthwhile? It certainly has. Maya has grown up quite a bit since then and is evolving into a beautiful young girl. There is more healing to do, more adjusting. It's not over yet but we will persevere with love and support for her. I'm sure it will be an adventure.
