Best Valentine Gift EVER



Billy finally made it back on his long journey home on Valentine's Day. I can honestly say it was the best Valentine's Day gift ever! And....the best part for me was seeing Kassidy finally being with her daddy again. It took about 10 minutes for her to let Billy hold her but once she let him then I started reliving our trip to China. If you remember, she only wanted Billy for almost the whole time we were in China. Every time Billy would put her down to go sign papers, talk to some people, etc., he had a little shadow following him everywhere without him not even knowing she was behind him or looking for him. When he would walk away from us in that receiving room, she would look at me as if to say "Where is he going now? And can I go with him?" I would just let her go and see if she could find him. It was funny because amidst that whole room of soldiers she would walk around and look up at every soldier she would pass until finding her daddy. In one of the pics above, you can see her in the middle of a group of soldiers once she finally found him and waiting there beside him until he finally looked down to see her. It was so precious. He has yet to be able to sit in the front seat of the car on our trips out so far. He always is told by Kassidy that his spot is in the back seat right beside her.
