When Gotcha Day rolls around - I always get a bit nostalgic. But I think Moms are allowed to do that. Every adoption is miraculous - every birth is miraculous - but some hold such a spot in your memory whether from fear, excitement, etc. that reflection is bittersweet. Today is one of those days for me - when I think back on the day we got Jada, fear was abundant and almost overshadowed the excitement, to be honest. <br />

<span style="text-align: start;">So when we have days now that we see such huge progress - we want to jump up and down, praise God, and want to take her back to China and show her orphanage workers with pride. There are still tough days - plenty of them - when I have learned that God WILL give you more than you can handle. But I'm also learning that when He gives me more than you can handle, He's causing us to focus on Him and that is all good too. We are grateful for the gift of Jada and the gift in her name too - "God Knows!"</span></div>

So July 30 was the start of the big week - the all day band camp - for high school band! The sunburns strike - the heat wave overtakes - yep, it was true again this year too. From 9 am to 9 pm (with short breaks for lunch and supper) the kids practice their songs and their field marching. They are troopers!! SO, the boys have bravely endured, once again, and at the end - THE PRIZE!!<br />

We were all excited to try it - until we realized it was over 90 degrees and quite a good hike in the hot sun!!! :) But what a great hike! We loved it - and would highly recommend it - just take lots of water and make sure your pool is ready when you are done!<br />

Notice the Bilby son pulling on Jada's arm....that has been quite an issue. Jada really can not see very far in front of her - so she did worry us on these high spots. So the boys would drag her to us and say, "Here she is - I am officially not responsible anymore!!" Cracked us up!!</div>

We learned as we went inside and took part in the hands-on activities and then went outside and hit their gorgeous hiking paths. Of course, it was almost 100 degrees today AND Jada kept reminding us that she was "too tired" as she was dripping with sweat and looked a bit bedraggled! So we kept it short - but managed to get a few fun photos!<br />
