Six years ago,
in a civil affairs office in Chongqing, China,
you were placed in our arms.
From the first day in our hotel,
you filled our hearts with joy...
Look at those smiles on your siblings faces....
from the first meeting at the airport right here,
they were soooo happy to have you home!
Thank you for filling our lives with joy,
and sharing your zest for life with so many people.
We treasure your "Izzyisms"
and love watching you care for others and put a smile on even the face of strangers.
You are an amazing gift from above,
and we love you so very much.
Today we celebrate YOU!
Chinese food tonight baby! :)
-Your Mom
