With all of the excitement of moving, I failed
to celebrate the one year anniversary of the homecoming of our little
rainbow girl, Galina "Hope." Can't believe she's been home over a year
already. We love her so much and are so blessed to
have her as part of our family! It's hard to believe that in just a
few weeks she will turn four. This picture was taken last year right
after we got back from our first trip to meet her when she was still two
(a missionary friend living in her town sent it to us via email). Upon
the missionary's arrival at the orphanage that day, Galina promptly
told her, "I have a mama!" You can see it in her eyes. Love this girl
so much! ♥
