Absence makes the heart grow fonder

So we haven't spoken for awhile, you and I. Obviously, the last post we had was on our last day since leaving Taiwan with Mae over four months ago. A lot has happened since then. Thanksgiving, Mae's birthday (1) , finalizing Mae's adoption in the U.S., Andrew's birthday (11), Christmas, New Year's Day, getting sealed to Mae, Martin Luther King Day, Groundhog's Day, Ethan's birthday (7), Valentine's Day, President's Day, a three day vacation to Zion National Park (aren't we adventurous), Ben's birthday (5) and Sara and my nervous breakdowns.

Mae has adapted well and is a full-fledged Leavitt. Apparently, no one told us that Mae wasn't all smiles, all of the time. Her photos from the orphanage were deceiving. Or perhaps she was just happier there. Either way, we have quickly been reminded of what it is like to have a one year old.

Seriously though, she's wonderful and Andrew, Ethan and Ben are proving what steller older brothers they can be.

I promise to be better about posting. More later.
