Adoption announcement photos
Was wondering if I could get opinions on which photo to use for my adoption announcements? I like each of them, so I'm having trouble deciding. The thumbnail is #1 and the two below are #'s 2-3. Also, I'm using the following poem on the announcement, so maybe one of the pics fits better w/the poem?
We witness a miracle every time a child enters into life But for those who make their journey home across time and miles, growing within the hearts of those who wait to love them, are carried on the wings of destiny and placed among us by God's very own hands.

My favorite is the third one -- the one where she's in yellow and is reclining. It's the one that made me go: "Awwwwwwwww." Have fun deciding on a photo and have a GREAT pick-up trip!!!!!!!!

I like #1 & #3 together. The colors work well together and the first one makes me grin, while the third makes me say awwwww. I would also touch up the first to remove the lamp, table, chair & crib so they don't distract the eye. She is adorable!!

I like #3 the best, but #1 is my second favorite.
You can't go wrong with any of the three.

I really like #1, she looks so cute and curious. It is a fun photo and I think it fits nice with the poem.

Number 1
I vote for number 1 - those big eyes and that look of complete trust and innocence! But of course they are all cute!
