GOTCHA DAY...YIPEE!!!

Can you believe that 7 years ago today our baby came home!!??? I can't and yet it's true. How faithful is our God!!?? Just think that for six years before that I was whining and crying about not having a baby when all along God had this great, great gift for us. Are you crying yet, because I'm trying not to. Our little tub-o-love was like manna from heaven and we are sooooooo thankful!!!
