It Has a Heart

This summer has flown by.

Monday was A’s Happy Adoption Day.  We hung our ‘Celebrate Adoption’ banner on the fireplace mantle.  In the morning, I gave my daughter a huge hug and wished her a happy adoption day.  We went out to the living room and she looked at the mantle.  A great big grin was on her her face.

“It has a heart!”  She raced over to finger the banner.  “And there is an up, down, across (the method we have been using to teach her how to write the letter A)…and another one there (pointing)….There are 2 A’s on it, just for me!”

I love you sweetheart.  After 2 1/2 years, you still make my heart smile every day.
