Happy 9th Gotcha Day, Grace!

On August 31, 2003, (nine years ago!), one very scared, confused and angry baby was placed into my arms.  She was a wildcat of a thing and NOT happy about being stuck with us!  That was a rough beginning for all of us, but praise God Grace grew to like us and us her! :)  Now she has blossomed into a beautiful, energetic, creative, smart, happy, fun-loving, girl!  Happy 9th Gotcha Day, Grace!  We love you!  

Everyone watches as Grace is presented with her Gotcha Day gift - a fancy cloisonne butterfly barrette.  The tradition in our family is that on Grace's and Promise's Gotcha Days, they get a gift from their homeland.  I have a tub full of gifts for each of the girls (they wish they could go through those tubs!).

Grace proudly shows off her fancy barrette and gets a hug from Daddy!

Grace saw this picture and decided she did not like her smile.  She said she can't wait to get braces to help her have a beautiful smile!
