Sometimes I'd like to ask God why He allows poverty, famine and injustice when He could do something about it. But I'm afraid God might ask me the same question.

6 months ago today

you walked into our lives
You were so brave and strong

Our hearts broke for your pain
We fell in love in an instant
That very same evening, 6 months ago, you opened up your heart and never stopped.
We are head over heels for you.
We love your easy going, happy go lucky, cuddly little self.
You are a blessing to our lives and fill our family with joy.

I agree with Sarabeth. I can't believe it has ONLY been 6 months. It feels like she's always been there. :-) Precious girl!

A,
Can you belive it's been 6 months ago that we first saw our girls? The time has flown for us-although it's as if they have always been with us from the start!

Amy-Cannot believe it has been 6 months---Congrats on reaching this milestone---and what a ride it's been. To go from wild Finn to laid back Finn---who would have thought?

Your girls are just adorable together---love the last photo of Mina and Finn.

But I have to tell you...you are in LOADS of trouble in 10 years or so---with your three gorgeous girls! Sorry...

Hugs,
Erin

So, so sweet...I remember seeing those pictures you posted this day 6 months ago - that big, pouty bottom lip, then the happy shot that night - I was stumped!! So delighted for all of you!

I love checking your blog and seeing sweet little Finn. I don't know if you remember me but we were referred our daughters the same weekend from the same orphanage - we travelled at the beginning of April. Finn looks like the happiest little baby girl on the planet and I'm so happy that she finally made it home. I've always been sad that we couldn't get pictures of her in China for you - I sure would have liked to meet your precious girl in person. Congratulations on your first six months together and your happily ever after!

Happy Gotcha Day! I can't believe it's been 6 months home for our little girls!

I especially love the pouty lip photo of Finn and then the amazing transformation smile later! So precious!

So when are we going back for another one??? (Oh the prayer of my heart...)
