Beautiful Differences!

As I have been thinking and reading through a couple books I wanted to write a bit on the post I had written on Nyah and I's same characteristics. As much as we are alike we are also different. And differences are to be noticed and made beautiful.

For example: when we go to a different country it is easy to come back and say how comfortable we felt, how much we are thankful for what we have, can't believe how people in our age group act the same as us, etc. This can be a way for us to cope with the shock of a new culture, and not look deeper at how God has worked in us. It is easy to look at the more shallow aspects and not ask the questions as to how and why.

I think looking at the same characteristics Nyah and I have is a good thing, but I don't want to stop there! She has the most beautiful brown skin and curly black hair that only God our creator made. She wrinkles up her nose and throws herself back when she is upset. She has the most amazing little laugh and dance moves that only come from the Ethiopian culture.

We are so thankful for her birth family and the love they gave Aregash. She is an incredible blessing along with her big brother Grant. The are quite the pair when they play together!
