The Thai adoption board told us we could keep her!! So tomorrow we go to the American Consulate to get her visa. As far as M goes, today was a better day than yesterday. I did my first little girl ponytail (only took me 3 tries... Ha ha!!) But the best part about today is that Manatsanan was born one year ago to the day - and for her birthday we've given her her new American name....
Happy 1st birthday to Madisan Holland!!

Happy Birthday MADISAN!!!!
I love the name and it is wonderful you have this day to celebrate with her and tell her all about it!!! I guess it takes the stress of what other day to celebrate as far as not competing with birth siblings -Gotcha Day and Birthday!!!

Amy & Carter,
I have tears in my eyes reading your posts! What an incredibly emotional and exciting time! Madison is a true gift, and it is clear that she was very well loved by her foster family, which will eventually help ease her transition. Congratulations on the amazing addition to your family!
