Bringing Home Joy



We are so thankful for the blessing of our new daughter, Anna Joy Writebol. It has already been one week since we brought her home from the hospital and we can't believe how fast it's gone and how much joy she brings us already. Yes, there are the 2 am feedings and diaper changes but for the most part the transition has been great. Esther is doing really well too and doing a great job at being "mom". What a privilege and responsibility it is to be entrusted with the care of a little one. It gives me an added respect for my parents that I've never had before.
As you can imagine we are taking lots of pictures and have put them on a web album for friends and family to check out. Here's the link. I continue to add pictures on a regular basis.

Anna is just so cute. Isn't it wonderful being parents and having a sweet tiny daughter to hold and care for. I look forward to seeing her again. Love the hat.

Aunt Steph loves her very much and thinks she is adorable!!!!! I can't wait to hold her again and spend time with her before she (and you all :) ) goes to Canada :):) Give her a hug for me!!! Love you all!

Love the pictures! She's cute as can be. I love the first few weeks when they sleep like crazy, and alway look slightly confused in every picture...

"Where am I, what's this ..Ah! I'm blind! What was that!?"

Enjoy every moment!
