Referral-versary!!

April Fools Day will always hold a special place in our hearts...  One year ago on April Fools Day we received the phone call from our adoption agency that would change our lives forever....Sheila (our agency's director) called Drew at work to tell him she had our referral and he rushed home (without calling me first!) so we could open the email and see the pictures of our baby girl together.  I can still remember my confusion when I heard the garage door open in the middle of the afternoon and the look on Drew's face (and his red eyes that had been crying the whole ride home).  And oh the joy when he told me.  I will never forget opening up that email.  PURE JOY.  She was 5 months old and absolutely perfect. We instantly fell in love.   And she would soon be OURS.  These were the pictures we received that day. 

What a crazy ride the past year has been.  I couldn't feel more blessed to be able to call this little bundle my daughter. Happy referral-versary little Zoe!
