Thankful Thursday!

The many faces of Claire...

This Thankful Thursday I am thankful for the 10 months that we have had with Claire. Ten months ago today we met her for the first time. It has been an amazing journey. We are often told how lucky Claire is to be in our family but we think it is the other way around; we are the lucky ones to have her in our family. I am so thankful that God chose us to be her family. I just love this little girl to pieces! I love her funny sense of humor, her adorable laugh, her sweet kisses, her crocodile tears, and her feisty temper! Her name could have been JOY because she brings joy to everyone around her. I love how each Sunday at church she has a group of "seasoned citizens" that she has attached to. She searches each one out and when she sees one she will run to them and throw her arms around them. Claire is just further proof that love doesn't have a language barrier! She loves and loves big!
