2 years ago...

2 years ago we were in Africa... Gotcha Day... Africa was beautiful and we will be forever changed for having been there... We made wonderful friends and experienced everything we could. We hugged and held so many little faces... we are still praying for some that are still there... waiting after 2 years...

Our 2 years hasn't been without its struggles, but seeing all 3 littles snugged together reading a book under the blanket is amazing. They have come a long way... we are a family....

It's so great to remember where we were two years ago. Starting off with 2 little ones who didn't know us and didn't really want to. Looking back in retrospect of how we've become a family. The things we've gained, the things we've given up. It helps me to remember Africa to really see how far we've come. I'm rambling... sorry. I got to tell our story to a stranger today and it always makes me so sentimental. Happy Gotcha Day!

Hello! Forgive my intruding, but my husband and I are researching adoption agencies for our next adoption and are looking into Hope Adoption Agency. Your blog was on their website so I thought I ought to send you a message and ask your thoughts on their agency. We'd really appreciate any tips, experiences or advice! Thank you so much!
