One Year Ago Today Across The Ocean Far, Far Away...

We decided to start a new family tradition- every year we will re-live our incredible journey to bring home Sasha Jade by watching ourselves on the computer from this side of the ocean... one year later and one year wiser... Your comments are always welcome:

Our Family Tree




















We've added to our family tree
A stronger one to make
A child from another plant 
has become our new namesake.

Just as a limb is grafted
from one tree to another, 
It alters and improves the plant
Making it uniquely like no other.

Our family tree has been improved
adoption made this so.
For love much more than bloodlines
makes us thrive and grow.

We chose to share our life and love
and all the joys to come.
Our "family tree" has blossomed
with the arrival of our cherished one.
