We had fun with you guys at Noah and my highlight of the week besides seeing my extended family was going to dinner with the AWAA families!

Love the pictures of you meeting Zoie. I just had this vision of your babe in your arms. The wait will soon be over and your arms will soon be FULL...God willing with a couple. Sounds like Noah was amazing and I need to make a trip down to take in that one. Your words about Noah were great reminders of wonderful truth.
