Leah's "Anniversary"













Mom and Leah: May 11, 2009


Two years ago today Leah was placed in our arms forever. It is still so strange for us to realize she wasn't always with us and we weren't always with her. There are many things to call this day "Leah Day", "Gotcha Day", "Adoption Day" but today my friend Liz mentioned they used to call her brother's day his "anniversary". I like it. We tried to make the most of the day even though Leah is wearing a cast and Dad is in Vermont at a conference. This morning we went to Audrey's and played with all of Leah's "friends" and this afternoon she went to Maggie's to play while I went to Verizon and got myself a gift for Leah's anniversary- an iphone! My phone went missing yesterday so seemed as good of a reason as any!

We will celebrate when Dad comes home by of course going to eat at Taste of India! In the meantime we documented the day with a picture of Leah and I! Thanks Michele.
