The orphanage director hands her off to me
Paige took this incredible picture on the bus, just minutes after 'Gotcha' moment
This is what happened whenever we would put her down,
So we held her close, and carried her constantly.

So beautiful.... the photographs that touch the deepest recesses of my heart, your precious daughter, the love of a mother for her child, God's faithfulness, and this special day that will forever be celebrated and cherished. Thank You Jesus for bringing Sophia safely home into the arms of her Mama.

Happy (late) Anniversary. She is a beautiful child and I am so glad I get to read about and see cute photos of her all the time!
Happy Family Day!! Sophia is such a cutie!! Of course I am partial to the name and all girls from Jiangxi.;-)
Love this post--such great moments you were able to capture.
Happy Anniversary! You my dear were not forgotten by me. I warned you the "Nana" would be visiting for a few days. Haven't had a moment to myself. I have missed You!!!
Oh, I can't believe it. I actually got a sneak peek at mommy. Gorgeous profile shot. *wink*. Sophia is the most precious lovable child. She seemed so innocent.
Lucky you...
Hugs. Rony
I am so glad to hear the world also changed for the better for a few of us that day. We got married that day.
It is hard to celebrate such things while the world mourns (still) ...of course as do we.
I knew there was a reason we connect.
