Caleb is HOME!!!

For this child I prayed; and the LORD hath given me my petition which I asked of him
1 Samuel 1:27

Wow what a day we have had!  We are praising Jesus that our boy is home!  He is definitely worth the wait!  I am tired and I want to go enjoy my son so today will be "Gotcha Day" in pictures.  I know that is what you really want to see anyway!  Introducing Caleb Joseph Ho-min...

Doesn't this just melt your heart?

So sweet
Time to leave the airport
On the ride home..it was a long ride...

Caleb is doing amazingly well.  He has bonded with the boys for sure.  Bedtime should be interesting.  We may have to have a slumber party in the living room!

Oh, and he is tiny.  The 3T pants I brought for him were falling off!  He only weighs about 22 pounds!

Thanks for sharing in our joy and for praying for us!  We love you all!

Welcome Home Caleb Joseph Ho-min!! How precious you are! How much you are loved!!

Robin, the pictures are absolutely wonderful! I am so happy that you got to have your GA family there with you, what a special blessing!

Was Caleb's excort as sweet as she looks in the picture? So cute. And the picture of Claire welcoming her little brother, down on his level--yes, heartmelting.

Everyone's smiles pretty much tell the story of the day, including Caleb's. He is home where he belongs! Thank you father God, that tonight, one more orphan is an orphan no more!

Rejoicing with you in Texas~

Love,

Tina and all

Tears! Alexis and I have waited all day for your post. :) He reminds me so much of Hudson. Such a handsome little guy. All the pictures are precious. I don't know which one makes me cry the most. I think the one with Claire. The boys holding his hand was pretty cute,too. The one on the floor with Brianna is way too cute. I'm so happy for you all!!!!
