Here are a couple pictures of Zach at the Park. I was trying to figure out what to do today for our first Gotcha Day and realized that going to the Park (which Zach loves) is probably the best thing for him. We had a great time. It is so hard to believe that it was a year ago today that I held my sweet baby for the first time! Some days it seem like it was just yesterday, but other days it feels like he has been with me forever. We had a great day playing at the Park, McDonalds (at his request), playing soccer in the back yard all afternoon and then out to dinner. It was a great day. I am still so excited to be "Zach's Mom".

Mother's Day
Here is a picture I took with my phone yesterday! Is he cute or what!! It was a wonderful first Mother's Day with Zach. I can't tell you how wonderful it was to wake up Sunday morning knowing I had my little guy in the next room. Finally a Mother's Day that wasn't sad. I still did my traditional visit with the Angels on my memorial bench, but this year I took Zach with me. I tell him that they represent the four little angels I have in heaven. I know he doesn't understand yet, but he will.
We had a great day! We went to my sisters for a bbq. We celebrated Mother's Day and her birthday (which is today). So if you are reading this Aunt Tete, Happy Birthday! It was the perfect day spent with family. I am truly blessed with the wonderful family that I have!
This is a picture of Zach's Foster Mom (and her two daughters) in Guatemala. I did not want to forget her on Mother's Day since she was Zach's "mom" for the first 15 months of life. So, we sent her the flowers, candy, lotion and powder. The service I use to deliver them takes a picture to prove that they received what you sent. I could not imagine not including her in our celebration even though we are so far apart. I also remembered Zach's birth mom in my prayers yesterday. I am so grateful to her. I do wish there was a way to let her know what a great little boy he is and how well he is doing.
I hope all the Mom's reading this had a wonderful Mother's Day!
