FFF - First Time Ever I Saw Your Face



This is the very first picture I saw of Johanna. She is nine days old in this picture. I got her referral at 11 days. I cannot believe she will be 1 year old in FIVE DAYS!!!!

wow........how time flys. Johanna is just adorable. go to www.californiababy.com I use the calming hair and body wash and the calming lotion. It is all natural and it smells like lavendar. It is more expensive but Stella's skin is sensitive and she has eczema. I love it and won't use anything else again. I think target is starting to carry it too. Also some natural food stores might have it. I got mine on line or my friend who lives in NYC orders her diapers, wipes, skin care etc. at www.diapers.com loves that website. Courtney

Hasn't this last year flown by now that we're looking back? God had complete control and walked us through some agonizing times as we waited for our daughters. He is so good to us!

Love,
Stacy

Gail,
Isn't amazing how time crawled while you were waiting for Johanna to come home, but it now flies by. Our Tabitha has been with us 8 months--hard to believe!

And I can speek from experience, that moment you received this photo is no different than when they lay that child on your chest after delivery. Its the awesome power of God's perfect love! What a treasure and a gift it is to truly understand and appreciate the love of God and the power in us through being His adopted daughters. Love all the photos and updates on Johanna. IT wasn't too long ago that we were waiting for Mixco, and here we are, enjoying our daughters. Blessings, Susie

Awww...what a sweetie!

Soak up all the memories you can from her first birthday. Seriously, it goes SO fast and you'll spend a long time wishing you had it back.
