Happy Gotcha Day, Alexandra Grace

Seven years ago today, we entered the Botakoz baby house in Karaganda, Kazakhstan for the 27th consecutive day.

But this day was different. After months of paperwork, weeks of travel, and days of court hearings, on February 17th, 2009 we entered the baby house as the official, legal, overjoyed parents of Alexandra Grace Morningstar.

Today we celebrate the day that we welcomed the spunkiest, zaniest, hardworkingest, most affectionate little gal in Kazakstan into our family!

Happy Gotcha Day, Sasha! We are so grateful that we are yours and you are ours.
