momma all the time now and it just melts my heart. When I went to pick them up after work they were both asleep so I went in the room and she slowly opened her eyes and sweetly said "momma".
It is crazy to think that we were in Korea six months ago this week. Thursday after we got Chloe's referral I was thinking that the past six months have flown by and it is strange to think about what our lives will be like six months from now. I have been thinking a lot today about time. I know that sounds weird, but I have been thinking about what I do with my time. I have always been guilty of living from one event to another and it just seems like when I live like that I miss all the details of every day life. It is crazy that we waited 8 months from the time we got Emma's picture to when she came home and it was a hard wait but it actually went by really fast. I just got so caught up in the wait that I know I missed very precious moments with Samuel and with my family. I do not really remember anything significant about those 8 months but the waiting. I do not want to be guilty of that again while we wait for Chloe to come home. I definitely want her to come home soon but I do not want to wish that time goes by fast. I want to treasure every moment I have with Sam and Emma. The only thing accomplished by wishing time to go by quickly is lost time.
