Happy "Forever Family" Day

March 11th is a yearly reminder to us of God's goodness and grace. It's the day the OH judge said, "this is forever" and we gladly accepted. It just simply amazes me to think of all the children in the world, God chose HVN for us and us for HVN.

My heart quickly thinks of our birth mother and the selfless decision she made to give HVN life and to choose us as her Forever Family. We are grateful for her and thankful that she allowed God to lead her heart. I pray often that He gives her peace and glimpses of HVN's well being and the love we have for her through our blog. Our birth mother will forever be close in our hearts, I just know God will allow us to gather one day and speak of His blessings.

Then there is "K". He was the greatest support for our birth mother during her pregnancy, decision making, healing and life. We stand in amazement of his role in HVN's life and the strength he was and continues to be for his family. We are thankful for Him.

And for the many who have prayed for HVN and have had any part in encouraging all of us involved, we give thanks for you.

Lastly....there is HVN. She has been a joy since birth. Her smile is beautiful, her heart is sweet and compassionate, her energy is high and exciting. She has great abilities and loves to learn; she knows her ABC's, she counts to 14, she knows her animals and sounds, her memorized song list is vast, she continues to use her sign language and she is eager to learn. She is her father's side kick as she loves the outdoors and cant wait to shoot a pink bow, they love to play t-ball or anything that involves a ball. We just love her spirit; our HVN is full of laughter, she loves to tease, play and make us laugh. She's using her manners well and enjoys together time as all are invited to sit and play with her at anytime, she's very inviting.

Officially two years ago today God saw fit to hear our hearts cry and give us a child to lavish our love on. We love loving her and sharing her with the many other in our lives that love her. To Him we are eternally grateful, He is the giver of all good things!
