tyson's adoption day


happy adoption day to my big boy.

we are headed to whichever treat his 2-year-old mind can come up with.

i rewound 2 years from today and read my post about tyson's finalization. and sobbed.

from that post:


"could you please state for the court what it has been like to have tyson in your home?"


a split second video slide show of the doctor's office where we were told we were sterile, getting the initial email from nicole, meeting her, crying on the plane in denver when he was born, holding him for the first time, the tears in nicole's eyes at placement, the legal struggle to get home to utah, mr. r weeping as we held each other in the airport, our first night as a family, the giggles, the rolling over, the smell of tyson's hair ...all ran through my mind at lightning speed.



i love you, tys.
i am so lucky i get to be your mom.

Happy Adoption Day to Tyson.

No one prepared me for how emotional/spiritual finalization would be. Amazing.

Griffin's is on Thursday. Can't wait to answer those questions again.
