Six months ago today

There once was a path...
That led to a gate...
That led to the moment of a lifetime...
They led us to you...
Six months ago today.

You were scared...
And overwhelmed by it all...
If you want to know the truth, so was I.

Six months ago today.

But we had been waiting for that moment. It was thrust upon you. And I already had you in my heart. I already loved you. You had no idea who we were, these strangers fawning all over you.

Six months ago today.

One thing is certain, you know now, as we do. You are ours. We are yours. We belong together...

We've been together now longer than we were apart. Those days will always be with you. You will forget, you may have forgotten them already. But we will remind you. We will all hold your first 5 months in our hearts. Along with the country and the original family who gave you life.

But everything changed, six months ago today.

Today, we are a family...
And that will never change.
