Seven Months! Really???

Seven months ago, our lives were forever changed

 

As this precious treasure became our baby girl.

We are forever grateful to the One who chose us to be her forever family.

 

The last seven months have been filled with lots of ups and downs.

Learning to be a family of seven is not easy.

 

 

There’s new artwork on the girls’ bedroom walls, and my dining room floor looks good with that nice stripe of silver sharpie.

There are fusses and lots of she took  my  ipod, ds, Barbie, toy, snack, drink, etc.

There’s lots of  - - -  if she doesn’t stop talking I think my ears might fall off (and yes, I’m talking about Lexi – her language is amazing). My favorite is when she tells the other kids to be quiet because it’s her turn to talk.

There’s lots of time outs and lots and lots of boundary testing, making mom and dad prove that they mean what they say.

 

But most days we are simply in awe  . . .  amazed  . . . at God's grace.
 

And every day is filled with love, laughter  . . .

And this silly smile. We love you, Lexi Ling and are so glad you're ours.
