It's official! Amiah is adopted! Thursday morning I woke up to Jack jumping beside me and saying, "I'm so excited for today Mom!" And then Boston waltzing in wanting to know when we were going to see "Amiah be dopted." Boston may have a little crush on the girl of the day, hence the matching pink tie...
It was a glorious day...God is doing a beautiful work in this little girl and we are so blessed to be a part of the journey!
The day was very sentimental for our family. Matt and I grabbed hands and exchanged glances several times with each other and with Jack as we recalled the day we were in the same room with this little man...
...and the prayers that were prayed over him as we began our "official" walk as a family.
Jack remembered it too and asked a lot of questions. I am SO, SO thankful for the children in Jack's life who have been adopted. Even though ours was step-parent adoption and it is different, it gives him people his age who he can relate to. He has been in that courtroom twice now for other adoptions and it makes him feel like he's not the only one as he wrestles with the questions he has in his heart. Even if they are wild and crazy like these two kiddos we got to play with last week, we are oh so thankful that we know them and that we get to walk through life worshiping The One who brought us all together!
