Ok, we are on the eve of our one year anniversary of Owl permanently be placed in my arms and my life forever. I celebrated by mowing 1/2 my lawn, after Tuki and I spent a wonderful evening together releasing leopard frogs, wood frogs, toads, spring peepers, green frogs and a tree frog (long story) and then just chillin together. Her eye opened up a little yesterday and now today it is almost 100%. It had been a fantastic 1 year. I was flying into Guatemala by myself on this day and arriving at 10:30pm and then escorted to the Marriott by the hotel's van. I remember how warm the air felt on my skin as I waited for the driver to make sure he didn't forget anyone at the airport. It ended up that I was the only guest arriving that evening. I checked in and fell asleep because the foster mom was coming the next day with Owl.
It gives me chills just to read about your pick up trip...and she was adorable a year ago just as she is today! Aren't you just the lucky one to have that little girl in your life??? And MORE to come, too!
