Bittersweet

Landry has started Kindergarten! That's right, Aim's older little girl has taken her first step on her journey to take over the world. Let me just share with you the very very special place this kid holds in my heart.

L is 18 months younger than J. By the time L came along I knew there would be no more pregnancies and I was actually doubting that I could ever love another child as heartbreakingly and euphorically as I loved my J. Then Aim had her papoose and I met her. Stars in my eyes, yall! Let me elaborate on this cutie pic I posted of her.

Incredibly inquisitive--wants to know who what when and where and can sniff your bullshit a mile away. Curly curly CURLY hair. It defies gravity and your imagination. She's tall, almost J's size who is tall for a seven-year-old kid. This is strange b/c her mother under 5' tall. And mom will be pissed I'm telling you so.

So Landry's gift to me: I can love another baby just as completely as my J. That's when I knew in my heart and soul that adoption is for us.
