I don't know how else to say it. I lack the proper terminology to convey what I mean exactly, so I hope you understand when I say that Brayden is settled.
I thought he was before.
Actually, I thought when we got home and he did not cry that he was settled, but in hindsight, he was grieving then.
I truly believe that the steps in detaching from his foster family and attaching to (or is it with?) us is complete. Now, I am not naive enough to think that this solves anything, but it is such a relief to feel like those threads, thin and fragile as spider's silk, are now solid and permanent.
Funny how such a little guy can occupy such a big space in our lives...

So We"ll Never Forget...
I don't ever want to forget our adoption experiences. Jason and I have endured difficult times in our lives, but God has always used them as fertile ground for growth.
As painful as our search for a family was, I don't want to miss the lesson buried beneath the mounds of paperwork involved in creating our dossier and waiting through each grueling step of an international adoption or the uncertain expectancy of hoping for a match and walking through the process of a domsestic adoption.
I want to remember every moment of this journey called life.
