{ open }


This weekend, Henry's birth mom and family visited us. It was the first visit in over 6 months and the first time they saw where we live, where we are raising the little boy they too love dearly. Many magical, fun and moving days were had. We have a very open adoption with both of our childrens birth families. We feel that the more people that love a child, the better. And it does take a community to raise children, right? We also feel so fortunate that they chose us to raise the children they carried, that the very least we can do to show our gratitude is to have them be part of their lives.

ps. More fun was had in the pond. Hands down the best money we've ever spent.



ps. The new cute dress I bought Sam last week. Totally worth it as she hasn't taken it off.

I was just reading about open adoption on Bohogirl's site. I commend you both for being so brave.

How very special. You've got some lucky kiddos to have you two as their mom and dad.
