I take a lot of photo's of my children.
Therefore I have a lot of photos of Ella and Ezra.
A lot.
I keep them organized by their names, and then organized by month.
So if you were to open up my picture file you would see an Ella McKay file and an Ezra James file.
Today I added an Eli Cade file.
It's in those little moments that the reality of this adoption hits me.
If you were to have a camera on me this afternoon while I was creating his new file you would have seen the goofiest smile on my face. I am filled with an unexplainable joyful anticipation and overwhelment in those moments. A sense that I am doing exactly what God has called me to and prepared me for.
p.s. Eli's file already has 27 photo's in it. And we haven't even met yet =)

Tears, Jenn! I am so happy for ya'll=)
I am so full of joy reading that there is an Eli Cade file now and I look forward to seeing it fill up.
First, I love the fact that you have already created his file and are ready to fill it! :)
Second, I am glad that I am not the only one that takes way too many pictures of my children (over 13,000+ on our computer right now) and have them saved by name and month! :)
So excited for you guys!
well, you started my morning with happy tears! I need to see that file already! I can't wait to meet that little guy! I can already see Eli, Ezra & Christian fishing in the pond!
awesome. I can't wait to help you fill it even faster :)
