Gotcha Day: 1 Year Home!

One year ago today our empty arms were finally filled and we were never-to-be-parted with our sweet son, Israel Biruk!

It has been such an eventful, hard, joyful, laughter-filled, silly year and we are so thankful for our precious boy! God has been SO gracious to us! We had no idea that we could love a little person so much and that our lives would be completely turned upside down! I am so thankful that Israel Biruk made me a mommy, and that we have such a spunky kid that is ours!

We really thought that we would have our Gotcha Day video to share by his 1-year anniversary, but unfortunately it's just not ready yet! Hope to have it soon :)

To celebrate our 1 year anniversary with our boy, we're headed to the beach! Can't wait to celebrate God's faithfulness together. And for those of you in the wait, I will say, time finally speeds up again once you are home with your kids. I can't believe one whole year has passed so quickly- and I remember how the days and months used to drag by for us. God is faithful, friends. He really is.
