GOTCHA a month ago!!

It's been a month since we got our sweet boy!! He's just an amazing little guy, bursting with personality, kisses and smiles!

This month hasn't been without its challenges, but overall we're all adjusting well.

I'm quite busy as a mom with three kids, and would love to tell you more about what's going on,

but I honestly don't have the time. Just wanted to make note of and celebrate our first month anniversary..... enjoy the pics!

A little trip to the park on a Sunday afternoon.

I like to climb the slides!

Helping Dad mow the grass in my sling!

I love to swing on our new tree swing!!

They already let me fall off this thing once.

My brother, sister and new friend Emma.

Mom and I got on the swing together today and sister said, "Mom, if you hear some loud cracks that means it's time for you to get off!"

I met my Grandma and Grandpa when I flew home. Last weekend I got to meet my PaPaw and Grandma Doris. They're really great! They gave me everything I wanted!

I'm proud to be an American, even if I've been adopted by red necks!

I've also gained two pounds since I got home! I don't sleep so great yet. And, I'm on my second round of antibiotics for my ears. I plan to get a tube put in one of them soon (the other one doesn't need one because it has a huge hole). I'm also learning that throwing myself on the floor, screaming and kicking doesn't get me much around here.

Don't forget to come celebrate my adoption and second birthday with me on September 13th!!

Linda said...: Grandma and Grandpa stopped by the library in South Fork and got to see these precious pictures! What a delight for our marvelous day up here in the gorgeous Colorado Rockies! We keep thinking how much fun it would be with y'all here on the creek racing up and down on four wheelers! Maybe someday! We can't wait to "fancy camp" with our kiddos again!

So glad to see updated pictures of Joshua and we are sure praying for him!

Hannah, you are a hoot!

We love you guys!

The Story of the Starfish

Once a man was walking along a beach. The sun was shining and it was a beautiful day. Off in the distance he could see a boy going back and forth between the surf's edge and and the beach. Back and forth this person went. As the man approached he could see that there were hundreds of starfish stranded on the sand as the result of the natural action of the tide.The man was stuck by the the apparent futility of the task. There were far too many starfish. Many of them were sure to perish. As he approached the boy continued the task of picking up starfish one by one and throwing them into the surf.As he came up to the him he said, "You must be crazy. There are thousands of miles of beach covered with starfish. You can't possibly make a difference." The boy looked at the man. He then stooped down and pick up one more starfish and threw it back into the ocean. He turned back to the man and said, "It sure made a difference to that one!"
