This was their first morning waking up with Jonas. They were SO excited to see him! Jonas looks a little shell-shocked in this photo, but I promise he was smiling and happy with the attention. :)
And how sweet are these pics of Karis and Jonas???
Yay for brothers!!
I once heard an adult child of adoption share that he always wished someone in his family looked like he did. I know that's not possible for most children of adoption, so I'm extra grateful that these two get to grow up together. They'll share a history that I hope offers a meaningful connection. I hope Kai and Jonas are just as close as Karis and Jonas are, and I don't want to differentiate between our adopted and biological children, but I realize that being adopted can present a unique set of questions and struggles. My prayer is that Karis and Jonas will find support and encouragement in their shared history. I'm so, so thankful these two get to grow up together.
Melts my heart...
They could have missed this...
But God made it happen.
"He Will Accomplish."
We're forever grateful.
OH my goodness. You've got me crying. Those pictures are such a sweet testament to all God has accomplished. Being brothers will be such a sweet connection for Kai and Jonas. I just love seeing families with brothers. (maybe because I only had a sister...and I love my friendship with her)
ReplyDeleteI LOVE this post, Amy!!!! Praise God from whom all blessing flow. It is such a blessing to see these pictures and hear how well Jonas is fitting into his family. What an incredible and unique story the Lord has graciously woven in your lives. Your children are blessed to have parents who whole heartedly trust and follow after the heart of God.
