Meet our Little Noemi . . .

“Hope deferred makes the heart sick, but a desire fulfilled is a tree of life.”
- Proverbs 13:12

Announcing Noemi Sosina Witmer! We got word today at 11:47AM that Noemi passed court and is now legally our daughter! We’ll post more details soon, after we stop crying. We hope to travel in mid-August to bring her home. But for now, this one’s for you, baby…

Only Marvin Gaye would do for this occasion…
