One month ago today, the sweetest blessing was placed in my arms, "for keeps" in Ethiopia.  I can't believe it's been one month.  So many new experiences for us all- we're all still adjusting, loving almost every minute of it-   Craig says," she was born for our family"-  We are amazed at how God works!  He made her just for us, it's really just an awesome, amazing thing- and I'm so glad to be given this gift!  I still look at her and cannot believe she's here!  That she is our baby- I just want to eat her up- she is the purest joy!  We are so in love- I watch the kids with her, even Harrison will just kiss her cheek, melts my heart!  Then there is Craig- he loves her so much- and Jillian already looks up to Isabelle.  I always wanted a sister- glad my girls will have each other!  Even though we are all tired- she has brought a special light into our family- a sparkle!  She is special!  Can't wait to see what God has in store for her- on the other hand I want to freeze these moments in time so I can always remember her sweet little baby self!!!  Love it!
 
It's amazing how agonizingly slow the waiting is, and how heart-wrenchingly fast the time flies when they are in your arms. I loved Harrison at my house, "Be careful with MY baby"...no doubt of the love there. So sweet.
