In January of 2008 you were born in a very small village in Ethiopia to a beautiful Mommy and Daddy. How do I know they were beautiful? Because you are beautiful. You are beautiful from the curly hairs on top of your head down to your adorable little toes. I fell in love with you from the first picture I saw of you.
While waiting to bring you home, we got to watch you grow and grow...

In April 2009 God continued working miracles when a lady I met through her blog emailed me to let me know she was in Ethiopia and would we like her to visit you.
She prayed for you...took pictures of you...and brought you gifts...
As we waited through 6 court dates you continued to grow and grow...
In September 2009 as we prepared to travel we received one last set of pictures...
Boy had you grown...
You were 20 months old the first day we held you in our arms...
And when we brought you home...
Then you were 21 months...
Before we knew it you were 22 months old...
And what joy you have brought to our home...
It's December now...your 23 months old...Christmas cards have been sent with pictures tucked inside...
Could it be?
Is it true?
Are you really two?
Yep...it's true...
You really are two...
We hope you enjoyed your cupcakes...
And presents too...
But more importantly may you always know how much we love you...
