Camila arrived in Atlanta on a Friday afternoon and we immediately felt like she was part of our family. Every day since then, Camila has continued to weave herself into the fabric of our family's lives. From cooking and eating meals with all of us, to arts and crafts with the girls, to basketball and bike riding with our son...her laughter and bubbly nature has permeated every corner of our house and filled our days with a happy glow. Our family is better for it. I didn't think it was possible for our kids to love someone so much in such a short time. But they do. Camila is in her final days with our family, but she is far from leaving our family. In our hearts, she will be with us forever. We already have plans to visit her and her entire family in Argentina, and our girls have already vowed to be flower girls in her wedding.
