Oh what a year it was. Learning so many things and making so many friends. She had demons to overcome and did so quite well. The cafeteria is no longer a tomb of terror, and the playground became her very own. I can see such a difference in her....she really is growing up.
Today was buddy field day. The end of school party was a great big water fight with squirt bottles. It was a huge success. The funnest part was soaking the parents....at least we got them too. She has made such sweet friends this year. There was a time that I didn't think she would ever find someone to really have a friendship with and be able to go through the years with...hopefully these are the ones. She has enjoyed her year and can't believe it is over.

Every call has a beginning. A quiet moment when God whispers a promise to a mother’s heart . A holy place where a father bows and faithfully accepts the journey set before him. A miraculous morning that unexpectedly dawns… Casting its first light on a chosen threshold. A gentle knock..a closed door opens, a sacred invitation sent by the Father.. leads to the other side of the world. Where lonely hearts stare out orphanage windows praying for someone to care.. and then one morning, on an ordinary day an orphan’s life changes... God sends them a second chance...Through you..

We are a family now, a whole,of which you are a part,and you are just as much our child as any in our heart. We do not love you differently,nor would we give up less of all that life has given us to bring you happiness.There is no limit to our love,no boundary you might cross,no price you may be asked to pay,no need to fear its loss. We are now one, the five of us,windows of one home. As long as we have life and breath,You’ll never be alone.~Nicholas Gordon
