A conversation with Daddy

Earlier this evening, Madi and Daddy were having a drink of water and relaxing together. Daddy, who was enjoying the intimate moment told Madi how much he loved her. He said, "My favorite day was the first time I got to hold you when we adopted you." Madi replied, "My favorite day was the day that you adopted me." Of course, Daddy was all choked up then, and now.

So touching, and brings back to mind that first night when Lisa and I had Madi sitting in the middle of the bed in the hotel room in her diaper massaging her shoulders, arms, legs and toes when I kissed her in the small of the back (every baby’s sweet spot) and she let out two healthy chuckles. A few days later the attending American pediatrician asked the adoptive parents if any of them had gotten a smile from their new little ones yet. Only a smile? If he had only heard Madi that first night.
