Happy Gotcha Day, Matthew! You are truly loved and cherished by your family. I know they are blessed to have you in their lives.
ReplyDeleteWhat a joy to see as I start my day! Warms my heart! Still praying for Maia as she recovers.
ReplyDeleteWonderful post! Looking at that picture of your dressing Matthew gives me butterflies! So happy for Matthew, so happy for your family.
ReplyDeleteWanted to let you guys know that we ran into someone who follows your blog. Cass is her name and she is from Ireland. Olga helped her adopt her son and she also has a little girl that she has adopted. She wanted us to pass a greeting on to you. She when Olga introduced us she recognized our last name from your blog. We just happened to run into her in a very crowded spot. Olga didn't even know she was in town. Crazy! A pretty amazing testament to God's oneness and wonder. She has wanted to post, but has had internet trouble while traveling. Such a cool thing! Enjoy your celebration. Erica
