The First Day Together


Wow... what a wonderful day! God is so good.

Joshua is delightful and a joy to be around. He totally fits into our family from the very second we met him at the train station. He has the most beautiful smile and is sooooo sweet. Last night (while I was out getting last minutes supplies such as formula and a mattress for his bed that we had ordered) he spent a long time "telling Kendra a story" and then fell asleep on her chest while she was on the couch. I came home to find them both lying there as happy as can be. Here are some photos from our first day together...more to follow in the coming days.

grateful for God's abundant favor and grace.

Hi Kohls, we are so incredibly happy for you two! Joshua is such a handsome new member of your family! His parents are glowing as well! Can't wait to see you again and meet him in person. Hang in there, enjoy every second! God is so good, you both are so inspiring.

Wow! Yay yay yay! Next time your family is in TX, come visit...Austin and Joshua would have great fun together! And I wish you were nearby so we could share first-time parent stories all the time!

We're rejoicing with you over this wonderful blessing added to your family. I saw the news this morning on the blog, but it was also announced at ZF -- so there is a lot of rejoicing! We're praying with you as you bond with this precious blessing from the Lord. (P.S. my girls oohed and aahed at the pictures, and started calling Joshua your wise saving cabbage!)
