We signed the papers at the hospital.
We tearfully thanked Megan for allowing us the dream of being parents.
We exchanged gifts...
including special matching bracelets that had 3 flowers within one heart (symbolizing Megan, us, and this sweet baby girl).
Families were excited.
And families were united.
We soaked up our last few minutes at the hospital together, thanking God for His awesome plan...
And cried our way through a special adoption service for our families.
And then we took a special little girl home with us forever. :)
I celebrate every day with Caroline in our family, but this anniversary is very, very special to me.
ReplyDeleteI'm so glad Megan wanted the service. It took if from being a legal event to representing what we all knew: this was God's plan.
PRAISE GOD! We have our eighth great granddaughter to love.

ReplyDeleteBlessings are amazing.
ReplyDeleteThose pictures brought back a flood of memories! Such an emotional day. It's hard to believe that was just a year ago!
