Five years ago today Tate Owen leapt into his Daddy’s arms in Hohhot, China, and started his new forever!!
He yelled “BABA!” as he ran to Blake, and gave him a kiss on the cheek as he jumped into his Daddy’s arms!
I was sitting half-way around the world in front of a computer in the middle of the night waiting for my turn to tell Tate how much I loved him!
It was not too long after that first photo that we met over Skype and Tate immediately blew me kisses and called me Mama!!
I cannot believe it has been five years!!
It has been SUCH an amazing journey!!
Tate loved BIG that very first day, and he has loved big everyday since – bringing joy and smiles to anyone and everyone!
I can’t wait to see the plans the Lord has for our precious cherub!!
God writes the best stories!
Happy Forever Family Day to Zhang Hong Yang, our Tate Owen!!
WE LOVE YOU SO MUCH, TATER TOT!!!
