We were so blessed to be able to celebrate LuLu for the first time on Friday! To be surrounded with people who have helped to bring her home, and look forward to her coming home almost as much as we do, was so precious. When everyone sang Happy Birthday to her, I couldn't help but shed tears. Tears over the joy that she brings to us already, and tears over the gladness that the sorrow of many years has passed. Tears of thankfulness to God our Father for entrusting us with her, and this most amazing gift! Praise God for his blessing and saving grace!

Jamie, We wish just as much that you guys could've been there too. You have been a part of it all from the start. I hope it won't be long before you meet her!
