Joy Unspeakable

It has been awhile since I written. Grace continues to do so well. We continue to be so blessed by her. To take a child from a place where there is little hope for a good education and medical treatment to a place where she will get the best of both... bringing a child into a home that will teach her about the God who created her and who has a good plan for her life. It is JOY UNSPEAKABLE! We are looking forward to our first Christmas as a family of 6. Our hearts ached the past couple Christmases because of this space in our family that was yet to be filled. I watched as she looked in wonder at our lighted Christmas tree and carefully placed an ornament on it and I was just overwhelmed with all that God has done to bring her into our family. The New Year will bring lots of challenges with speech therapy and surgeries but for the rest of this year we will just enjoy this carefree time with Gracie Mei. I am certain that she will enjoy her first Christmas!
