6 Years Ago Today

6 years ago today my file reached the top of a large pile of files on someone's desk in China.  It was stamped with the date, September 13, 2006, officially initiating "my wait."  How poignant that here I am in China, on September 13, 2012, Grace sleeping peacefully in her crib beside my bed, me packing, preparing to bring her home forever.  And that my friends, is an amazing end to an amazing journey.
