Today is L's birthday! 6 years ago today, our little miracle baby made his entrance into this world! While we celebrate his special life today & celebrate both his & mommy's survival, we always remember his twin & the baby before that pregnancy who did not survive . We have not quite yet talked to L about either of these two children, but I believe he knows in his heart. He has always been very loving & watchful of the little girls around him. It's as if he instively knows that there was suppose to be a little sister for him to care for. It has always been like that. That's why his persistance in wanting a little sister has always meant so much to us. It is sad for us to see C & R's sweet relationship & know that L should have had the same! A while back, it hit me that adoption is a story of losses for everyone involved. Although there will always be a hint of sadness there, it's those losses that finally bring the family together & complete it (kind of like the rainbow after the rain!). This year the sadness is still felt, but it feels like the sunshine is breaking through b/c our daughter is almost here!
