I have been so excited this weekend, especially yesterday. Akwasi, my new nephew, came home from Ghana.
Story in a nutshell:
My sister went with me on both of my trips to Ghana for the adoption of our twin girls. Well, this little boy, found himself loving my sister. She definitely did not go to Ghana to adopt, but God had other plans for her. Anyway, the last 2 days there on our first trip, Akwasi came up to LA and said with a huge unforgetable smile, "I choose you to be my mother" and "I am going to follow you to America". Boy, did he grab her heart.
The odds were against them from becoming a family, but God did it all!
Below are pictures of the homecoming!
Here they come!!!!
Yeah - they are finally here!
Mother and Son finally together!
A hug from Grandma!
It was so fun to watch Akwasi with Rita and Racheal. It seemed like they were never separate.
Kaiden and Akwasi really got along really well.
After we picked them up, we out to eat at Chilli's. It was so fun to see how Akwasi just completely fit in with our family. It has been such a wonderful and Blessed weekend.
Welcome Home Akwasi!
