27 September 2006
It was two years ago today that we were declared the family for Elijah Matthew Witt! It was of course ordained from before the foundations of the world - but the Ukrainian government just had to get on board with the Creator of the Universe! In Acts 17 it says that God planned where each person would live! I was reading my bible one day and this verse just hit me (yep, like a brick) It's amazing to think that this little person was created with the knowledge that he would be grafted in to the Witt Family Tree. We are grafted in to Gods Family Tree and that is even more amazing.!
Happy Gotcha Day Elijah! We're so glad we gotchya!
Gotchya Pie: (we celebrated tonight with this invented-for-Elijah treat)
1 ready made pie crust, baked and filled with
2 pints of strawberries sliced and sprinkled with sugar and mixed with 1 pint of store bought pourable custard
homemade whipped cream - spread on top YUMMY!
