One year ago today...

One year ago today I was working in Emmy's class

One year ago today I didn't have my cell phone with me which was and is a normal occurence

One year ago today I didn't expect to get a call about you

One year ago today I thought we'd have to wait at least another month to hear your name, see your picture, and learn everything about you

One year ago today Daddy was FREAKING out because he got "the call" and couldn't get a hold of me for about 2 hrs.

One year ago today I was helping a classroom full of preschoolers glue, cut, write, color, share, and get a snack.

One year ago today Daddy was mad at me for not having my phone attached to my body. See we had made a deal neither of us could look at your picture without the other.

One year ago today when Daddy called and told me we got "the call" I didn't believe him.

One year ago today I started crying when I realized it was true.

One year ago today I drove too fast to get home so I could see you for the first time.

One year ago today my hands were shaking as I opened the file with your picture.

One year ago today we saw your beautiful face.

One year ago today we fell in love with you.

One year ago today we prayed for you with your beautiful face in our minds and heart.

One year ago today I felt so happy that I finally got to see you!

We love you Jeremiah Eyob...


First picture we saw of you!

  3. Love this Becca!!! I love all the writings you & Charlie have done so Jeremiah has such a cool "history" to look back on. And you can tell from both of your words that there is so much love there for your little man. Congrats again! I'm so glad God opened up doors for Jeremiah to be a part of your family!!
