Two years ago today we were handed a little 9 month old baby, in a land far away. We were complete strangers, but looking back there was a connection in our hearts already. Two years ago today, in an office and on a curb, I became a mother and Joe became a dad.
Two years ago today Jae-min's Omma said goodbye with such grace and tenderness. She was peaceful and knew we were his family, as she said numerous times when we sat with her. Her tender touch, her smile, and her embrace said it all. My heart still breaks remembering looking out of the back window of the cab, watching her waving, and then beginning to cry.
Two years ago today we wandered the streets of Seoul with our son to get pictures for him of him in his homeland. We were overwhelmed, ecstatic, scared, and full of hope. Hope for what the future would hold. We were thrown head first into this parenting thing. We were up all night with a grieving baby, and then were required to fly halfway back around the world with all eyes watching.
Jae-min has grown into a confident, happy, well adjusted little boy in these past two years. He is the light of our lives and definately a mamma's boy through and through. The past two years have all not been easy. But nothing in life that's worth it ever is
Happy 2nd Family Day Jae-min Francis!!!!!!!!!!!! You made me a mommy and I hope and pray every day that I make you proud. Can't wait to see you become a big brother. Love you with all my heart baby boy!!!!!!!!!!!
