Rachel's Gotcha Day





A year ago today a beautiful little girl came home to her family and our lives haven't been the same since. After sleeping for over 24 hours through the flight home, being passed around to numerous family members and then sleeping through the night we had no idea how much she would change our lives. She keeps us on our toes every minute and is proving to be quite the little daredevil. She has also brought much joy into our lives and keeps us laughing as well. At times she reminds me just how old I am but I can't imagine life without her.

We plan to celebrate the day by going to the Ethiopian restaurant and giving her and Leah possibly their first taste of authentic Ethiopian food. After over 2 years of waiting for both of them we had started to think we would never be at this point but God was in control of all of it and brought them to us at just the right time.
 

Now all glory to God, who is able, through his mighty power at work within us, to accomplish infinitely more than we might ask or think.

~ Ephesians 3:20
