1 Year Since the Travel Call!!!

One year ago today on July 15, 2013, we got the call we had been waiting on...we were going to ETHIOPIA to meet our baby girl!  We finally had a court date, and we needed to be on a plane to Africa in just 3 DAYS!!!  To say we were excited is a huge understatement!  We were ecstatic, giddy, joyful, and so
thankful!!!

  

It's one year later, and the girls and I were doing a little shopping at some of the summer sales this morning, when we saw this outfit on sale.  It was too perfect to pass up for Caroline Faith!  I know most of ya'll remember how special bluebirds were to us on our long adoption journey.  God used them as a sign to remind us of His faithfulness through the years of waiting.

And I just love that this little bluebird is singing away!  I think he is singing praises to Jesus, just like we are!  It's going to be really sweet and special over the coming days as we remember where we were just a short year ago!  Going to re-post some travel days of meeting our daughter!  Can't wait to look back!!!

We've come so far in just a year, and we are singing of His faithfulness just like the bluebird! :)

"I will give thanks to the Lord because of His righteousness; I will sing the praises of the name of the Lord Most High."
Psalm 7:17
