Our Beach Babe!





Faith is such a cutie! She loves when the waves come rolling onto the sand. It is so adorable to watch her, as she tries to run from the waves. She cracks us up! It was funny to see the expression on her face when her little butt hit the sand as the tide came in. Her little fanny got soaked! She was shocked! It only took a couple of minutes and she was back at it.

Watching the joy on this sweet girl's face, reminded me of how blessed we are. I still am in awe when I think about the miracle of adoption, ours in particular. How did we end up with the cutest, funniest, most precious Chinese daughter in the whole entire world (not even a little biased lol)? Just in case you are wondering, it is definitely a God thing. I could not have picked any child that would have been more perfect for our family. God knew! We are a family! Faith is not of my flesh, but of my heart. My love for her is as deep and real, as that of my biological children. She is "my own" as people often ask or misstate.

I can't tell you how many people make statements like, so you have three of your own and one adopted?!? No folks, I have four wonderful, equally loved and deeply desired children. They all come with special unique qualities and challenges. They each are a gift from God.
