2 1/2 years of pure energy:)

 She can look so calm...
 and endearing... but...
 This is what she is really like...
 99% of the time...

And we love her just the way she is:) 

We have had Hope in our lives for almost 2 years... it seems crazy that she has been with us that long.
 
I still feel like we are getting to know her in many ways.

She has mastered the potty...YAY!
She has really seemed to be turning a corner in her behavior...
It seems to have clicked for her in so many ways.
Normally she is constantly getting into things... like chap stick, deodorant, nail polish, etc...
You name it... if you turned your back for literally 15 seconds she was into it...

And she is smart as a whip...
Seriously, her vocabulary is incredible...
And she knows when to say certain things that you would NEVER think she would understand...

God has grown us and challenged us in so many ways through this journey of adopting...
We are so thankful for the stretching of us that He has done...

And we are so thankful for Miss Hope Jubilee:)
