Layla's Birthday

Today is Layla's birthday. I made a cake with pink frosting for the three of us. We sang "Happy Birthday" and Henry got to blow out the one candle. It was a bittersweet moment. We are so filled with joy over the fact that we get to bring Layla home to join our family, but it breaks our hearts knowing that she is so far away and is likely not getting the care she needs. Henry asked if Layla would get a cookie on her birthday. It was a sweet thing for him to say, but it broke my heart because she probably won't be getting any cookies today.
