Home as of about 2 hours ago!
ELynn...she was already legally mine, but I could not take custody until the U.S. Embassy cleared the case for immigration/visa (special process for adoptions)

Thanks Holly! I am trying to figure out if I want to call Gotcha day the day I took custody of her in Ethiopia (which would be Monday, March 19), or the day I arrived home, Saturday, March 24

Most of the people I know who have adopted say Gotcha Day for the day they took custody of their child and Airplane day for the day they came home

traditionally, I think it's the day you got your hands on her,,,,,,but I would think whatever you would rather
How about celebrating both?
One of my friends celebrated "Gotcha Day" as the day they took custody in the country,,,,
and celebrated "Forever Family" Day on the day they got back on US soil!
