Well, it's been quite a year. April/May were consumed with adventures in home remodeling.

| Our 3rd Car Garage addition. |
The end of May we vacationed in Peru.
And all the while our Ethiopian adoption went nowhere. We were 18 on the boy list in April and 18 again in May. 2013 was shaping up to be another year of squelched dreams and agonizing waiting.
Until.........
July 18th. We got a call. About a little boy. Born the day before. In Arizona. Our Son.
Wait, what Arizona????? Yes. We didn't have much confidence in being able to complete an adoption from Ethiopia so we decided to apply for a domestic program.
And it happened. He was born. We were called. Our son.
A beautiful perfect baby. Almost 5 months old now. A little boy. Happy. Loved. A blessing.
It feels wrong to not show you his entire lovely face. We haven't finalized yet and I am just being cautious. But that smile. I had to share that.
He is radiant and full of joy.
And I love him. My son.
