Better Than We Could Have Imagined

(I am going to need to post several posts about today because blogger doesn't want to work good tonight. The nerve of blogger on such a day! But here is a glimpse at least. I have so.many.more pictures to show you!! I will make more posts tomorrow when the internet is better.)

Awww, today. There just aren't enough beautiful words to describe today...receiving Luke, seeing Andrew become a father again, seeing Abi become a sister for the first time, and becoming a mom again myself. Tears flow down my cheeks even now as I write this. So instead of talking too much right now, even before I'm able to really process the place in my heart this new son has taken, I'll just post the pictures and you can see the beauty...Here is our Luke Andrew Robinson.

First time holding Luke. Abi was beside herself and Andrew and I were smitten.

First family photo!

Giving Luke some treats, which he happily scarfed down!


To my dear Luke: "And may you have the power to understand, as all God’s people should, how wide, how long, how high, and how deep his love is. May you experience the love of Christ, though it is too great to understand fully. Then you will be made complete with all the fullness of life and power that comes from God." Ephesians 3:18-19

    Amazing! So touching! My heart is full for you! How precious for Abi to be so excited and loving toward her little brother! I know all of the agonizing steps you' e been through to get to this day- so hard and so worth it now! Today is the day of celebration! I write to you from the Holt Campout - dozens of international adoptive families with our mostly Asian kids running around playing with each other while their mostly Caucasian parents look on with pleasure and enjoy eachothers' company.
