We got home from Boston last night. Joshua got a warm welcome. His brother and sisters are so sweet. Well, his sisters prepared gifts for him. His brother reminded him that he would share his new toys with him. ;)
Then as we are all standing in the kitchen talking Joy came up to me and hugged me and said, "I missed you, I love you."
That was the first unsolicited "I love you" she's ever given me. She says it every day after we say it to her but has never said it first.
Reminding me yet again what a long road grafting into a forever family is. It takes place when you don't even realize it's happening. In just the sharing of lives day after day.
