Great News!

Enjoying a sunny Sunday afternoon.

We have some great news -- we are officially fostering Ava!
This was our first leg on the road to adoption. Now that the adoption agency has approved us as Ava's foster family, we begin a three month fostering period that proceeds any court application for a legal adoption.

We recieved the news on August 16 (Emma's birthday). To celebrate, Ava got her ears pierced (If you look closely, you can see her little golden studs). She is a bright and joy-filled little baby. She has mastered the wave, and loves to playfully roll her eyes and giggle!

This is wonderful news. I have been praying that the Lord would smooth the path to adoption. This is the first step. Praise the Lord.
