Picture Parade : Referral Pics to NOW
Here is our lil Miss Makenley when we received our referral, she was about 2 days old in the pic.
And now she is 13 mos old. Time sure does fly once you get them home. To all who are still waiting. I know it feels like you will never bring your children home, but YOU WILL!! I promise you all that it is more than worth it. May God bless you all - Amy

Ok, here is what you have to look forward to! It is worth every agonizing moment of the wait!
At referral - 2 months old. Last month in her Hawaiian attire for my FIL's retirement luau. Yesterday, with her backpack (and Pullup on her head!) informing me she was ready to ride the school bus to school! (2.5 years old)
