Remembering the day Isaiah was born in our hearts

Yesterday, we celebrated that we have known Isaiah for one year!

Last year, it was May 4, 2010, and I was eating lunch at a local diner with my Mom. All of a sudden, in the noisy restaurant, my phone rang. I was truly not expecting anything because we had been #1 on our list for a month. It was difficult to hear, so I wrote down everything I could!Happy Tears!
I can still remember getting the call and rushing to Chris's school to surprise him. What a treat it was to knock on his door! See here for fun video! Here are the first pictures we saw of our son: Wow. I love these memories!

To help us remember, we headed back to TJs for burgers--with Isaiah. It was so sweet because in the middle of the noon rush, "our booth", the one we were sitting in one year ago, opened up! How I love that we have him now! Here he is now!

That is so awesome!!! I remember that day, so sweet after the long wait. Love that you went back to the diner and the same table opened up. Isaiah is such a cute and sweet boy. Glad he is safely in your arms, what a beautiful family he has received. Love being on this journey together. =) -b
