Gotcha

Six years ago
I travelled
to your birth place
a country of
beauty and warmth.

Today we celebrate
your Gotcha Day
the day you were put
into my outstretched arms
waiting to hold you,
hug you,
love you!

Your deep brown eyes
search me
Your small hands
wander my face and
pull my hair
your smile
shines and
melts my heart.

Today
you became
part of
our family...
waiting patiently for you
to be complete us.
You fill the void
with your
intelligence,
your humor
and your laughter.

I am lucky
thankful
and blessed
for
you are my girl!
