MARCH 20TH - Happy 1 year "Gotcha Date"

Well, it has been one year since a Russian judge granted us the legal parents of Brooke and Kyle. I can not believe it has been a year. So much has happened and they have changed so much. Kyle has gone from a preemie boy who couldn't sit up on his own to walking, running, talking and loving his alphabet letters and airplanes. Brooke has gone from the Orenburg scowl to laughing and smiling all the time and climbing anything she can.

Here are some pictures of them:

It has been an awesome ride so far. There are times that I catch myself just looking at them and thinking to myself and wondering how we got sooooo lucky. We have such great kids. I need to add another song to my blog by Rascall Flats. It's called, The Broken Road. It may be about a relationship by I really liken it to infertility and my path towards these beautiful children. Everytime I look at them, "God bless the broken road, that lead my straight to you!"

Brookie and Kyle...Mommy and Daddy love you more than you'll ever know. All the way to the moon and back.
