Well, I guess if you watch any movie over and over in a short period of time, you'll begin to find parallels to your own life. Here we have 6 amazing similarities between Finding Nemo and our adoption journey in Kaz.
1. The Lucky Fin
Nemo has one fin that is smaller than the other and it doesn't work quite as well as it should.
Ava has a lucky arm which she doesn't like to use nearly as much as the other one!
2. Naughty Behavior
Nemo disobeys his father when he swims out into open water to touch the "butt"(boat).
Ava wants to walk outside the baby house gates even when Mommy and Daddy say no.
3. It's a big ocean out there
Marlin and Dori go on a great adventure across the whole ocean to find Nemo and bring him home.
We have traveled across the world to find and bring little Ava home.
4. Faithful Friends and Family
Marlin and Dori find many friends along the way who help them get through their difficult journey.

We have found friends here in Kaz who have helped us get through the rough times. We also have our friends and family back home who have been supporting us the whole way through.
5. Obstacles along the way
Marlin and Dori run into some problems on their way to Nemo. Sharks, Jelly Fish, Seagulls, and Whales!
All three of us have encountered our own problems on this journey. But the biggest of all is torn paper
6. Happily Ever After
In the end the family is reunited and safely back at home.
We know that someday very soon we will be back at home with our family. We can't wait for our happy ending.

Great story ~ You will soon be home with your own happy ending which in turn starts your family's wonderful beginning. Happy Mother's Day Kari! Love to all of you,

I liked the Nemo comparison chart also-I kept thinking you would compare being stuck in the dentist fish tank to being stuck behind the baby gate walls! Have a good day!
Happy Mother's Day, Kar!! Love you!
