This morning as I stood in the pouring rain on yard duty I couldn't help but think of the pouring rain we drove through 2 years ago today on our way back to Vung Tau and on our way to officially becoming a family. Today marks the 2 year anniversary of our Giving and Receiving Ceremony (the official legalisation of Maiya's adoption) and we celebrated with a new sandbox and a fabulous Vietnamese dinner at a little restaurant in Kitchener. I'm not sure how it happened but that beautiful little 5 1/2 month old baby is now a very talkative, tall, beautiful little girl that keeps us on the go every minute she's awake! Here's a look over the last few months between the time she turned 2 and the time our family turned 2!
