A year ago today...


...we were given our beautiful daughter and she became ours for good! I was so overwhelmed with emotions; joy, grief, happiness, and fear.

April 1st, Seoul Korea. Addison with her wonderful foster mother.

Just left the arms of her foster mother and is on the way back to the hotel.
playing timidly at the hotel


April 2: arriving home....lots of people!


May 1st: she turns 1! The beautiful hanbok dress was a gift from her foster mother.


June - sporting a new dress (with chocolate ice cream on it)


The 4th of July


August - a gift from her foster mother!


September - at a football game


October - at the pumpkin patch


Trick-or-treating with her cousin Owem


November - sleeping soundly


December - getting our Christmas tree

Christmas!

February - in Daddy's shoes

My how quickly a year has gone. We are blessed beyond measure. To God be the glory.

  3. Translation:
    Ha-seon left more than one year already. Thank you so much for up-loading pictures all the time so that we can see how Ha-seon is growing. If you can keep up-loading pictures, it would be very nice. I pray God's blessing will be with your family all the time. I hope your family will be healthy and happy. Bye~~
