In the Last Few Days...
Over the last few days, a routine is slowly emerging.
And then in the midst of routine, we have exciting things happen like Elizabeth being inducted into the National Honor Society. Way to go, Eeeee!
I have just caught up on blogs that I am following and just love your pictures! I am so glad everyone is home and that Bella is doing so well. She has a smile on her face in all of her pictures! she is obviously a very happy little girl. You are so blessed and your family looks so happy. It is nice to see dad is able to have his beard now! lol....
Hello! My name is Paula Burckhard. I am married to Kevin and have five children: Elizabeth (18), Samuel (14), Grace (12 w/Down syndrome), Bella (7 w/Down syndrome adopted from Ukraine 2009); and Nole' (4 w/Down syndrome adopted from Serbia 2011) We are a family that loves God and desires to bring him Glory in all we do.
Nole' (listed as Nathan) Came Home on March 2, 2011 from Serbia!
Bella Bogdana Burckhard
This "beautiful gift from God" has been given to us through the miracle of adoption. She became part of our family in August 2009. We are excited to see how God will use this Ukrainian princess for his glory!
