Not just another ordinary day

We woke up to yucky ice but by mid-afternoon it was a beautiful field of snow outside our house. Oh, what fun! The boys patiently waited while everyone got on three layers of clothes each and we headed outside. Liam didn't make it off the back door step before he had his gloved hands in the snow. Our regular stomping ground was a whole new adventure today. They were delighted. Such sweet joy.




Just like today, this wasn't just another ordinary day two years ago.

After much waiting and wondering and wishing, today was the day we saw this precious face for the first time. A tiny baby boy, just five weeks old, living on the other side of the world. And, we would call him our son.

After much more waiting and wondering and wishing we brought him home. And, now we get to see this face everyday. We are blessed beyond measure. Thank you, God, for Liam.
