She looks so sweet! I am so happy that things have gone as well as they have for you, Madalyn, and your family. She is beautiful and will be happier every day when she realizes how great her "forever family" is.....
Sincerely, Tonya

So excited for you! She is just beautiful and I can't wait to hear more of how God has worked out the many details. Praying each day together brings a trust and bonding that will comfort your hearts. Terri Pigford (from FBCJ class)

A friend just pointed out that March 19 is the Feast of St. Joseph. What perfectly perfect for the timing of you finally having Josephine in your arms! :)
