One year has passed... it is absolutely amazing. We thought May 11, 2009 was the happiest day of our life, but really each day since has made us happier and happier. One year has never passed so quickly ( I only wish the years of waiting for Leah had passed this fast)! Leah Aasawari Harmon has made our lives more fulfilled than we ever could have imagined. We are so blessed to call her daughter and for her to call us Momma and Daddy.

This is going to be our last blog post, or at the very least much rarer than they have been. We are now just a "regular" family and we don't have all that much to post- most of the "firsts" have been done and now we just start living! If you want to keep in touch feel free to email us or both Andrew or I are on facebook and it is much easier for us to put pictures on there.

Thanks for following our journey to Leah and the first year home with her...

Mother's Day


Well this year Mother's day was spent VERY different than last year's. Last year we were on a 15.5 hour plane ride to Mumbai to meet Leah. This year Andrew and Leah bought me a gorgeous Lilac bush and then we all went to our favorite place- Chase's daily in Belfast for breakfast! Leah is now napping and Andrew is landscaping and I am reflecting! Words yet again can not sum how blessed I feel to have Leah as my daughter. And today especially, I thank the woman who brought her into this world for making the choice she did, that allowed me to be Leah's Mom.
