Gabby is 3 today! I cannot believe that it has been that long! She has changed my life so much. . .and I think ultimately she has changed the lives of thousands and people begin to think of their family unit differently! It is crazy to think that our minds shifted from China adoption to Rwanda adoption three years ago this week, too. God's mystery will never cease to amaze me!
Gabby: she is funny, she is stubborn, she is happy, she is loving, she is energetic, she is a great encourager! I love this girl!!!
And on this day (as with many others) I cannot help but to think of her birth mom. What a brave person she must be. My dream is that she knows and loves the Lord and that one day she and I will me and hug and share a look that only mothers can know. I think of that reunion often. I pray that somewhere, deep in her mother's heart, she knows that her baby girl is safe and happy and loved.
The first time I saw Gabby. . .I cannot describe the emotions and the happiness!

Happy Birthday, Geezer!!! (Her middle name is Iribagiza: "we praise the Lord because you are a blessing". . .that is where her nickname, Geezer, came from.) I cannot imagine my life without you--or our lives without you!
