What an amazing weekend. Our first time together as a family of 7. I love it. I can't believe I have five kids, but I love it. Jada is doing so well. She is so smily and so cute and already loves her mommy! :) I really wasn't sure how adoption would look when we started this whole process. I kept saying that I felt God had called us here and we were being obedient. Nothing else. I didn't know who God had in mind for our family. Well, this weekend was just a glimpse and all I can say is we are truly blessed. Jada is perfect for our family. I know it won't always be easy, but I'm thankful. So thankful that God in His great mercy adopted me into His family. Thankful that He's given me a heart for adoption and a love greater than I could have imagined for a little girl who is now my own.
Just a few pics. The first night home. Can you say overtired and overwhelmed???

Day two. Meeting friends from Ethiopia at home in America. We love you Ellyana!

Pure sweetness!!!

Getting lots of love from four big brothers.
I hope to get some pics from our trip up soon.
