What a Difference!!!

One year ago today, we received our referral for two little Ethiopian twin boys, Opiyew and Uchan!! We were so overwhelmed, excited, and amazed at God's story and how it was unfolding in our lives. To read about that incredible day, click here. We also received pictures of our new sons that day, and we were able to see their little faces for the first time - the faces that we had prayed so hard for, waited so long for, and loved so much, even before we knew who God had in store for us.

Today, I am posting all of their referral photos, along with some "referral re-takes" that I took this week. What a difference a year makes! What a difference a family makes!

Happy referral-anniversary, Jalen Opiyew and Jordan Uchan!!! We cannot imagine our lives without you, and are so thankful that God brought us together!!!
