What an amazing night!

Our son was baptized by our brother-in-law tonight.  It was a beautiful service full of the worship songs that inspired us and got us through the adoption.  God was SO present and we were so blessed to be able to share it with 150 of our closest friends and family.  What a truly memorable night.  Thank you to everyone who participated in the service, to everyone who prayed for us and Ty during this journey, and to everyone who helped us welcome Ty into God's family tonight.  What an incredible experience.
The family of six - possibly complete.

This is me trying to pull myself together while talking about how far Ty has come in the month that he's been home with us and how important it is for EVERY child to grow up in a God-fearing, loving, healthy family.

And this was Ty proving how far he's come by standing on the podium!
