It was two years ago today that we received our referral call from Julie at AGCI
And two years ago today that I let my grandparents see his sweet face before I did
And two years ago today that I called Justin while he drove a patrol car with the lights and sirens and he kept saying, "what?!"
Two years ago today I held my breath the entire night at Refuge to not give it away and share at the very end what had happened that day
Two years ago tonight, we had our family and friends here at our home where Justin and I would sit down together, after a long day of waiting and wondering, to see our son's face on a computer screen
Two years ago, we turned the screen around and watched and listened as everyone we loved ooohed and ahhhhed about our unnamed child
Two years ago we ate rich chocolate cake and jumped up and down and squealed and screamed and cried and danced and shouted and prayed and praised and felt the joy of family
Our son was only three weeks old
Our son was tiny
Our son.

And because I am feeling especially sentimental and have a few more minutes until naptime is over, here are some fun places to go back and relive all the excitement.
All the comments are super fun, too! Be sure and check those out as well.
