This is a side of Alec we didn't see when we were in Haiti! It looks like he is definitely developing his personality these days. This picture made us smile! :)
This blog was created to chronicle our family's journey to adopt our fourth child, a little boy from Haiti. Long before knowing him, we chose his name: Ian, meaning "God is gracious." Along the way our journey grew to include not only one, but two little boys from Haiti!
Ian and Alec finally arrived home on January 19, 2010.
