And a few random things that have nothing to do with adoption:
-the sweet blessing of getting to have lunch with the Cash family on our way out of Georgia and before they headed back to Madagascar.

-safe travels from Georgia to Texas
-playdate with Meredith and Melissa
-3 excited boys getting Ranger players signatures
