Martin and Kim, she is so beautiful. Can't wait to teach her how to play the drums on your pots and pans! hahaha She does look like the Abraham boys when they were babies. She's got the cheeks. What a wonderful Christmas celebration we'll have. See you on the 23rd. Love, Elaine and Michael

These pics made me tear up! Can you imagine how Jesus has been anticipating this union? He purposed her to be in your home....so that He could be made known to her. Oh, that He loves us that much!

Blessings!

It should maybe be illegal to be that cute! She is an absolute button! Oh Kim, now I understand even more why you were aching to return for her! God bless you guys.
