WELCOME HOME KIAN

We were so excited to get off the plane and know that we were home.  I could hardly wait to see McKade and my family.  This journey started 5 years ago and now we are home with our precious little boy.  I was so emotional walking towards the Baggage Claim.  I don't know why I was so emotional but as I write this I am sobbing feeling again the love I have for my family and the joy at bringing Kian into this family.  My sweet sister in law, Jessi, came and took tons of pictures (I wish I weren't in my lovely new t-shirt from the airport and sweats, remember I have been traveling for over 24 hours).  Jessi put these pictures to a video so please view it, I will post some below but the video is so AMAZING!!

 When we were going down the elevator and we saw everyone below I was crying before the doors opened.  John said he was going to present Joshua like on the Lion King.  We joked of this before the doors opened.

I couldn't wait to get my hands on McKade!

The first time the brothers met, PRICELESS!!

Oh to see my MOMMY!!  I am so thankful to her, I couldn't wait in China to text her right before bed because she would be up when everyone else was still sleeping.  I just needed her and to talk a little and it always saved me.  I love you mom.

We have lots of tears today but I love this picture of Jeff and his Dad.  They don't look a thing alike, right!!  The tears do not stop for the next few weeks and we feel so blessed!!

Me and MY BOYS!!

I loved that my Grandma Gina came to the airport, thank you Cheryl for bringing her and coming as well.  I LOVE my beautiful grandma, she is 84.  She waited to meet Kian before going home to St. George.  I sobbed as she hugged me and told me that she admired me.  What a wonderful compliment I will never forget.  Grams I love you.

McKade was so excited to get Kian home, we were just so excited to be home.  When we got home our wonderful family and friends had our house cleaned, cupboards and fridge stocked, and food prepared in the fridge and dinner in the oven.  What would I do without you all, I LOVE YOU!!  Thanks so much for all you do for us and for taking such great care of McKade while we were gone.
