5 years ago today...

we saw our daughter's face for the first time.
We were in awe.
We were in love.
We were in awe.
Actually, we were in shock. We had to keep reminding ourselves to breathe--shock can do that to ya, ya know.

There before us on our computer screen was the daughter we had prayed so long for. We had already named her Cherish and were praying for her by name.

On that day, written on the computer screen was, "Name: Mei Ai Mei, Translated: Love/Cherish Rose." We cried. We knew she was the daughter God had planned for us, but the confirmation blew us away!

So, 5 years ago today we saw this face:

And, still today, Cherish can take our breaths away.
 
We love you, sweet Cherish Rose!
Daddy and I still cannot believe we get to be your parents.
We are the ones who are truly blessed!
We love you!
xoxoxo!
