We are blessed!
Wednesday was an amazing day! How humbling to know that God chose us to be the parents of Matthew David! He knew before the beginning of time we would be standing in the court room that day as a family of three!
A few photos from our adoption day! I can't wait to see all that were taken! (So if you are reading this and had your camera with you....hint, hint!)

I have to share a few pictures from the night we first met our son.

Thank you God for the privilege of adoption!
Thank you God for the privilege of adoption!
It's an honor to be your sons and daughters, adopted through Jesus!
Amen
"All praise to God, the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly realms because we are united with Christ. Even before he made the world, God loved us and chose us in Christ to be holy and without fault in his eyes. God decided in advance to adopt us into his own family by bringing us to himself through Jesus Christ. This is what he wanted to do, and it gave him great pleasure. So we praise God for the glorious grace he has poured out on us who belong to his dear Son. He is so rich in kindness and grace that he purchased our freedom with the blood of his Son and forgave our sins."

I am so happy for your little family! What a happy day!
What a wonderful day! This is a day that we will never forget! We knew from the beginning how very special Matthew is and everytime we visit with him, we see what an amazing child he is!
I remember not so long ago the first time I held him. I felt so much love and joy for this tiny little boy...we all look forward now to see what the future holds for Matthew and how wonderful it will be to be a part of his life.
We love you all,God Bless You,
Aunt Dawn and Uncle'Do
I still get teary every time I think about your adoption story. You all have such big hearts and after meeting Matthew, I can already see that you have instilled your values in him. You three are so blessed to have found one another!! Congrats again!
Love you!
