Seven years ago today, we were entrusted with the greatest of treasures when, with our new son, we walked out of an orphanage in Yerevan, Armenia, to be a family forever.
Rex, every year I seek to write words in this space
that will be meaningful to you in the future
and every year I am at a loss
in adequately expressing our thoughts and feelings for you.
This year, let me tell you just a single thing,
something your dad and I say to each other nearly each night:
We are not, cannot possibly ever be, worthy
of the purity and depth of your love for us.
Thank you for trusting us,
teaching us,
and loving us unconditionally.
