Adoption Day, 2013

[przed]

Six years ago today, Ros became a member of our family. Today we had a family dinner at Ros' favourite local bistro. And on the weekend we got together with another family from our travel group and their daughter. The other dad is a fantastic photographer, and sent us a few pics of Ros from the day.

Ros looking pleased as punch in dress-up evening gloves.


And being the Serious Young Princess in an Aurora gown.



I was going to put up some Ros through the years pics, but I already put up some of the best ones last year. So I'll just say we're lucky to have her in our family, and I cherish every day with her.

Oh my! So so pretty! I was taking a look at last year's pictures of her growing - I hate to quote my mum, but she's right here: "they grow so fast!" :)

Happy anniversary to all of you!

What a wonderful day to celebrate, congrats! Could remember last year's stunning black and white picture and I think the second one in particular is another frame-worthy photo!

Just wonderful! I'll never forget your post with the picture of her as a 6 months old child in the orphanage. She had such deeply saddened eyes back then... and now she is such a happy and powerful girl. Congratulations!
