A Time to Celebrate

DSCN1293 March 26th, 2008, a day I will remember forever and ever. Last year on this day we were so blessed to be able to officially make Andrew a part of our family. It was a long awaited day and we are so grateful for him and all the joy he brings to our lives. DSCN3666 DSCN3681Julia shared a story with me a while ago about a child who was explaining adoption to her peers in school…..“it is when you grow in your mommy’s heart instead of her stomach.” My little Drewbie grew in my heart and I would not have wanted it any other way. He is such an amazing little boy and I love him so very much.

We love you Andrew!

What a special little boy. Funny how the Lord knows just what is best for us, huh? We were sad to see you guys move but if you hadn't, you would have the precious preschooler you have now. What a great family!
