I am drawing this blog to a close for now. I will likely stop in every now and again or maybe I will start something new but as this was Kingston's homecoming blog and Kingston is home, I will close it.
We are happy, we are healthy, we are lucky and we are blessed beyond measure. We have family who loves us and friends who support us. I look back on the past three plus years of our lives and realize what a completely wild ride it has been. I am struck by how strong we are and how far we have come. We have two boys that bring me laughter each day. They fulfill my life as I never thought possible. Their very being makes me thankful. Our lives only started the day three years ago that Everest joined our family and given that, we are still infants, learning how to live each day the best we can.
I want to thank everybody who has followed our journey, who has understood our struggles, who has laughed at our stories. I want to thank our families who have stood by us through all of our turmoil and have offered support through just being there. I want to thank our friends who have been with us every step of the way and who never judged our decisions no matter how non-traditional they may have been. It is through these struggles that you realize who matters in your life.
Mr. Everest Chang Chunhui Lentz and Mr. Kingston Zhang Tao Lentz do not yet realize how fortunate they are to have such wonderful people in their lives but then again, perhaps they already do.
Love to you all,
Melissa, Ryan, Everest and Kingston
