Abigail's 7th Celebration of her Adoption Day!

So this is a picture of Abigail and Andrew the year we adopted Abigail! So cute!!!!

This is Abigail truly enjoying her carrot cake that she requested!!! With cream cheese frosting of course made by daddy!

She loves the attention. We were able to sing to her with all the campers singing too. That was fun. They all thought it was great!
First thing in the morning we open the gifts...in our pj's. Notice all the pink! Lip gloss, Barbie, and even pink books!!! I think God laughs because I am not a pink type girl, and all of my girls are.

What a great day to remember that 7 years ago.....Abigail's case was finally over and she was ours forever!!!! I still remember the day we first met her at 14 months old. Etched in my brain. She was with another foster family at the time (they wanted to find a forever home because they were grandparent age), and she was so cute walking down the stairs. She spent the time teasing us. Playing like she knew she was cute, but didn't want us to play with her. Our next visit we went to Burger King with her. Then we were able to take her home for an overnight. Then after a while she moved in with us, and then...well you can read more on her - look under her full name and that post explains more.

We are just soooo thankful God put her with us. We couldn't ask for more. She is such a great help, great big sister, and so kind in her spirit! Praise God for her life, and for her in our lives!!!
