She is ours!!

We went this morning to finalize Norah's adoption. They asked us very simple and straight forwad questions -our names, our ages, our health status, Norah's chinese name and where she is from (we had to practice all the way there pronouncing it), do we want to adopt her and do we promise not ever abandon, neglect or abuse her. All answers came naturally, and it was a joyous moment!! We got to share the moment with most families that we shared gotcha day with. What an incredible orchestration - to have a life changing moment with so many other families!!!
Gotta keep this short - gotta a fussy one!! :) Much love

So happy for you guys! I know you can't wait to bring her home now to meet Nate and Naomi. Praying for a safe trip and good behavior for Norah :) Can't wait to see her!

Still love the hair... those full lips! Just beautiful. Is that a temper tantrum or a show of drama??Whatever it is its wonderful. Love and miss y'all.

You girls are so photogenic. Seriously . . . beautiful. (And I am not one to exaggerate on such things.) Thanks for keeping us up-dated. We love plugging in to your days whenever we can -- makes us feel a bit more like we're right there with you (which we ARE in thought/prayer). GOD IS IN CONTROL and we are trusting Him with every step that you take. Loving you from around the world!
