Referral Pictures

Here are Zi's referral pictures. We think they were taken when she was about 6 months old.

We received the infamous "call" on February 1st, 2010. I wrote all of the information that the agency gave me on the back of a junk-mail envelope, and waited for the email that contained these three photos. I was in Montgomery, and Charles was in Atlanta, as usual. So, when I hung up with the agency, I immediately called Charles who was driving home from work and could not see the pictures (thank you very much ATL traffic) for another 45 minutes.

Five weeks later, I still find myself looking at the pictures trying to tell myself that it really is real. That THIS child will soon be in our home banging on pots and pans.
