What an Amazing Year!

I cannot believe it ... Silas has been with us for an entire year.

Last year at this time we were stepping off the plane on the way home from Ethiopia with our son, Silas in our arms and holding out our arms for our daughter, waiting for us at the airport with grandma and grandpa.

Our family of 4 was together for the 1st time.

And Kiera could not stop kissing him and jumping up and down excited.

It feels like just yesterday and forever at the same time.
It has been a busy, fun year.

Just take a look ...
