It's really really real! It takes my breath away to think about you seeing her for the first time. I know that it is unlikely, but I sure wish that you could keep us updated while you are over there. You will have your hands full when you get home, but know that we are all holding our breath to see you all together!

I got goose bumps when I read "Gotcha Day!" We've been waiting for a long time for your Gotcha Day - but it's only 9 days away! Can you believe it!
