Making it Official

Three years ago today N became officially ours.  We traveled to Vung Tau for the Giving and Receiving ceremony.   It wasn't as planned.  It was supposed to happen the day we met N, but was delayed.  Thankfully we were able to have him with us in HCMC in between.

Because of the delay N had been with us long enough to start forming an attachment.  In addition to that, he had started to nurse, more for comfort than nutrition (I had done Dr. Newman's protocol for inducing lactation).  This meant 2 things...I couldn't wear the outfit I had planned for the G&R and...he really wanted to be nursing through the whole thing.  It was so hot and he was so miserable.  I stripped him down to his onesie but he was very unhappy.
