Today is Amaris's 7th birthday. As with Sam it amazes me how much she has changed since joining our family. When we were trying to choose her new adoption name we decided 2 things. 1. we really wanted HER to choose her new name. and 2. we wanted her new name to have special meaning. So we gave her 4 names we liked and she picked Amaris: Hebrew meaning God has provided protection. There is no other name more fitting for her. Because God has held her in His hand since the day she was born. Protecting her from things we could never even imagine! I know He has amazing plans for her life.
A few things about our Amaris:
1. She is a girly girl who loves high heels and glittler!
2. She loves to "Do Hair"
3. She looks up to her big sister and lives to spend time with her.
4. Amaris loves to sing, if there is no particular song going on, she will make one up.
5. She makes very realistic frog and owl sounds....most people find fascinating....but they both drive me nuts!
6. she has freckles which makes her look more like Madison and Isaiah.
7. She is the first to offer a prayer if I have a headache.
I am blessed to have God trust me to be her Mommy. We are heading up to school today at 1:00 to have a little party.

You are a great mom Angela!! God chose you and Scott to be Sam and Amaris's parents for a specific reason. Those two children have a loving home with caring parents and siblings that they may have not gotten otherwise.
Hope Amaris had a wonderful birthday with her wonderful family!
