Category Archives: China Trip We made it home last night at 7:30pm! So thankful!!! We are just settling and enjoying being together. Will post more later:) He woke up at 3:45am–I fixed him warm oatmeal with bananas…and we are just enjoying the quiet together in our HOME! So thankful. God is good! Now…to settle in as a family and […] My sweet Zeke. I love the way you cut your eyes and grin at me–almost from behind as I hold you in my lap. I love the way you hide you face on my chest when things are overwhelming and the way you say my name…mama–in a scratchy whisper…it melts my heart every time.

We found some […]  Alright—BEFORE I post on day 11…I have to reflect a bit on DAY 10…saying GOODBYE to our sweet friends in our son’s provence.
