One year ago today,we received pictures of our daughter turning one. We stared at these pictures for hours, knowing that in a few short weeks we would meet our daughter for the first time and bring her home. We look at these pictures now with a mixture of disbelief, elation and melancholy. It will always be hard to know that her first year of life was lived without parents to hold her close, rock her to sleep and watch with delight as she smiled for the first time.
BUT, I am not interested in giving too much thought to all of that because here we have none other than the birthday girl herself, showering us with smiles and laughter and utter delightfulness.
Jasmine decided that on her 2nd birthday she would actually try out the swing and enjoy it! Up until this point our feeble attempts at swinging have been met with discomfort and cries for rescue. Happy Birthday, Xiaoxiao!
