Joy

 Sixteen months ago our precious son received his first hug. It has been incredible journey of growth for each of us in our family. As we look back there were many bumps in the road to get him here, and many long hard days once he was here, but now there is nothing in the world I would trade for this life of JOY!                
                                   Look at this face!!
  
Can you see the joy he has. Jesus has filled his heart. He finally is understanding the unconditional love of a family. The other day he walked by and gave me a kiss on the cheek and said, "I love you mom." He understands love is to be received and given. This boy brings so much joy to our lives. He always is making you smile with something he does or says. I love just watching each new thing he discovers and the excitement it brings. We have crossed the point where we can't remember life without him. Adoption is such an amazing gift from God, you get to watch a life drastically transform right before your eyes.
