It was 2 years ago today that we received the official word from our agency that Rosie was ours. When you adopt through the Special Needs program the procedure is different so we didn't get a referral call as such in fact I made the call to them, begging them to allow us to be her family. I didn't give them a chance to speak and if I had the phone call would have been shorter, much much shorter because they had already decided she was ours and Elizabeth Rose was just trying to get a word in edgeways.
We had seen her referral package 2 weeks earlier and had been dragging it all over town from specialist to specialist and trying so hard not to fall in love. I had even taken a blogging break in fear that I would say something which had keyed many of you in as to what was going on.
You can read the story here and see Lily's announcement video too. Wow, Lily was just a little girl with a very squeaky voice. I miss that squeaky voice. She has grown up so much in the last 2 years it is so shocking to see it. She morphed overnight into a big sister and it is a role she takes very seriously and she loves her baby sister, as she still calls her, so very much.

I watched your video with Natalie. She was very interested in your daughter and the announcement. I remember watching it when you first posted. Boy does time fly... What happy memories!
