We Are Home!
We arrived from Ethiopia last Saturday. I haven't posted much lately because we have been extremely busy making sure we had everything ready for our daughter's arrival.
She's adjusting perfectly well, she is just precious. She is an amazing young girl that fits right into our family. Traveling to Ethiopia was amazing. I was able to see where my daughter is from and met with her birthmother. So many emotions all in one weeks time. Anyhow I finally get to post a picture!!!! LOL.....  Her name is Anaya Letarik and she's 10 years old.
