Yesterday was Rachel's birthday. She is eight years old. The time has flown so fast. I thought that I would share some of the pictures I've taken of her over the years.
This picture was taken the day I picked Rachel up in her village. She was six weeks old and weighed less than six pounds. In this photo, I was feeding her for the first time.
Here Rachel is sleeping in her bed the first night in her new home. 
I think Rachel is four months old in this picture. 
I just like this one.
Six months old (or so).
This is the passport photo for her first passport...
age two.
Riding a luggage cart somewhere in Michigan. We were on holiday with my mother and grandmother.
Don't you love this smile?
On a ferry between Bali and Lombok.
Age four or so.
The two of us when she was age five.
Ta-dah!
Rachel with my mom and me in June 2013.
Rachel got her hair cut on her birthday.
I kind of miss the long hair...
But the short cut is cute.
I hope you enjoyed my walk down memory lane.
