Without doubt, Rosi was fully part of our family as soon as I answered the phone and heard that we had been chosen as the family of this sweet, tiny little girl; as soon as Drew and I drove as fast as we could to Memphis to meet her brave birthmom and then her; and certainly as soon as we brought her home to 804 N. 14th St in what seemed like the middle of the night, but to siblings who were too excited to go to sleep and who came out anxiously to greet her and hold her asking, "is she real?" Rosi, as soon as we heard about you, laid eyes on you, and held you, we knew that you were the child the Lord planned for our family. Nevertheless, this moment on August 3rd, 2015 was a wonderful one, when we dressed up and went to the court house, and heard the judge declare it officially-- you are a Martin now and for good. You are so loved and we are better because you are one of us.
