Five years ago

Hard to believe, but five years ago I went to a class for teaching. When I got home, there was a new monthly listing of kids from our agency.  I requested to see the file of one particularly cute little girl.  I fell in love, but I did every month.  I went out to get Jerry, much like every month.  Fully expecting him to say no, much like every month, he didn't. This time he said show me more.  Then show me more.  Then much to my surprise he said wow!  This is our Hanna!  What do we do next!  The way it worked back then was we had to put our names in to be matched with her.  Boy, it was a long 6 days of waiting!  Then my phone rang during Kung Fu Panda and changed our life forever!  Hanna is such a blessing. She truly is awesome.  She loves to read (and is really good at it), write, color, draw, play tennis.  I could go on and on.  Can't believe how much she's grown.  Thank you God for letting me be her mom!
