Look Alikes ... Part One

Here is our Miss Sophie ...


... and, I know what you're thinkin'. "Oh, great! Another picture of your (completely and utterly adorable) kid in her PJ's ... you're point is ...?"


And, yes, I would have to agree with you, she IS completely and utterly adorable.

Thank you for noticing!


But, there is a point to my posting another seemingly random picture of said completely and utterly adorable child. And that point is this ...



*** Enter drumroll for dramatic effect ***


... THIS is her daddy in similar dress and pose in days long gone by.


And, oh. my. good. golly. Does she not look just like him?



It is amazing to me that God would bring us a child - through adoption, no less - that looks so very much like my man! Thank you Lord, there is no doubt in our minds that this little girl (ya know, the completely and utterly adorable one) was created just for us!


He just had to take the scenic route in getting her to us.


Which just makes the journey a little more interesting, no?



And, in case you need a little more proof, kindly observe the following :



Like Daughter ...


... like Daddy!


MAN, that God is sooooooo good!



And, coming soon (if I can find a decent baby pic of yours truly), another episode of Look Alikes: Like Mother Like Daughter, featuring Hattie Grace!

Who, by the way, is completely and utterly adorable her own sweet self!

I love the picts!!! God's plan are always perfect, sometimes it takes us time to realize it, but he is a BIG God.

I am completely stunned by the physical similarity! Confession: I was pretty impressed when I thought she was your biological and child and was about to make the age-old joke, "So, you really had something to do with creating this child?" and then when I read she is adopted, I just sat there, stymied. Wow.
