I've felt that exact same way when Joshua started walking, but I told myself, better that he can walk than not at all! I'm always trying to remind myself of the fact that milestones are growth, and somehow he's surviving (though maybe not thriving) well enough there and for that, God is merciful.
But at least she is developing normally. It is very hard to know that all these months are passing and know that if they were here they would be going to the zoo, the beach, the library....
HUGS to you....it is a bittersweet moment. I will try to get her on video walking for you next week. I know how it hurts to not even know what the day was, but she looks great. Mine moved to the toddler room..=(
Married to my high school sweet heart for 12 years. We have two incredible boys, who are the absolute love of our lives and have recently brought home our little girl Avery from Haiti on January 25, 2010. We had just entered Parquet when the earthquake hit, so our file was expedited along with others already in process to come home. So, we are no longer waiting for Avery and our family is complete!

Longing with you...
