God knew

The kids are on Spring Break this week. We headed down to Mississippi to visit family and we are now in New Orleans taking in the sights. Since we've been on break we have enjoyed both Beniam's birthday AND the Easter Holiday.

Beniam turned 7! Hard to believe. He was 3 (soon to be 4) when we brought him home from Ethiopia. He had a hard three years. Orphaned and living on the street. But God knew. God knew that he'd be with us soon. He even knew he'd celebrate his 7th birthday party at Gattitown in Mississippi.

Those eyes. They gripped me when I saw his referral pictures. I knew he was mine.

Easter morning at my brothers house with ten kids. That's a lot of chocolate bunnies.

My handsome sons dressed for church. Our church is casual so this was cause for a picture.
Will post pics soon from NOLA!
