WOW! What a difference a forever family in combination with God's goodness and grace makes! So glad she has found her family and you have found her. :)
ReplyDeleteSo glad to hear things are going so well for you guys (a little jealous about the sleeping 11 hours a night thing, lol). Wow I knew Amelia was a big girl but 95% percentile! Thnk she could share a little of that with my Cori? She's only like 5th percentile at 25lbs (she has gained a 1 lb since we got her.)
ReplyDeletekeep in touch =)
