This time last year we did not even know about Keaton and had been waiting patiently for 3 1/2 years for a referral. May 19th 2010 we changed to the Special Needs China program and got Keaton's referral the same day! His first birthday was May 21, 2010 the day we accepted the referral officially. We had him home as our son and a U.S. citizen Sept. 26th, 2010. Today I enjoyed my first Mother's Day with such a great little boy! He has blended right in to our lives and family from day 1. He is always smiling and happy everyday. What a blessing he is, and we are so thankful God chose for us all to be a family. We are now going to have a brother coming home in just a few more months!
Happy Mother's Day Christy!! I hope it was a wonderful 1st Mother's Day for you, with many many many more to come!
ReplyDeleteThanks Jodi! I hope you had a great Mother's Day also!

ReplyDeleteWow, you got his referral the day you switched? That is so amazing.
ReplyDeleteHappy belated mother's day to you. You are so blessed with this sweet and handsome little boy, and next year it'll be two little boys. Next year is sure to be an amazing one for you. :)
