Meet and Greet!

We were excited that this weekend Sean, the girls' birthfather, traveled out to our neck of the woods to meet the girls. We've been so grateful for our contact so far with birth family members, and meeting Sean was something we all wanted to do.

The girls were a little slow to warm up at lunch, but when we went to the park they really lit up and had a fun time.

Here, Clara is receiving a flower still brave enough to grow on a Montana November day. She and Sean shared this flower back and forth for many happy minutes.

Another fun game Clara started was going through Sean's wallet and dumping out all his cards. Bless his heart, he was so patient with her and let her do it as much as she liked.

Elena, with her wary personality, was a bit standoffish for some of the visit, but Sean soon found out the way to this girl's heart - technology! He shared his cell phone with her, and she was thrilled.

From that moment on, it was a technology bonanza. Cell phones and cameras were swapped around plenty and it kept everyone just so entertained.

The girls are so lucky to know the love of their birthfather, their birthmother, and all of their families. There is no way these girls can doubt that they are beloved, and that their life is one that started and will always continue in great love. We couldn't ask for anything more!
