Silver linings

As a lot of you know, we adopted Adam out of foster care less than two months ago. It's taken him some time to adjust to another set of new parents, and he's taken to calling my husband and I "Mommy Libby" and "Daddy Isaac".

The kids and I all picked up a nasty cold-bug over the weekend, and the only good thing is it's made the littlest ones super cuddly. I was snuggling with a feverish Adam at bedtime, and he called me mommy for the first time ever! Not Mommy Libby, or Miss Libby, but just mommy! I haven't felt this kind of joy in being called "mom" since Ella first talked 10 years ago

 

That is so precious! I am so happy for you

 

So, so sweet and special. How wonderful for both of you!

 

That is wonderful! I am so happy for you. Hope you all are on the mend!

 

My children are both adopted too!!! What an amazing feeling!! Finally they are home and with their forever family!!!

 

Tears in my eyes!!! How wonderful for both of you!

 

Isn't it amazing? We adopted Lydia 4 years ago, Nick a year and a half ago, and Adam just in March. Congrats on your kids as well!
