Our First Embrace

A day I will never forget. After a long wait on April 17, 2007 we finally held our sweet Clara Elizabeth De Min for the very first time. In this moment time stood still and my heart was filled with immeasurable joy.
In minutes she was laughing and greeting us like she too had waited for this day.

And now each day is filled with her smiles and laughter. We love her so and she daily brings us immeasurable joy! If you like you can go back and read more about our incredible journey to bring her home here .
Oh how we prayed for this little one to join our family. Once she was in our arms this verse continuously reminded me of God's faithfulness.
I prayed for this child, and the Lord has granted me what I asked of Him.
1 Samuel 1:27
Until next time...
Robin

Love reading back on those posts from a few years ago! Clara Beth was just a baby. Actually, that's how I remember Land... he is so grown up!

Take a look at my blog, you'll see Sumter at one day and then at 11. His birthday was last Tuesday.
