Bryanna Joy Deeren

Welcome to the family. What a true joy!!! Boy does this bring back memories. She looks so much like Sierra did. She is about 5 pound in this picture but was around 4 pounds when she came to live with Bryan & Suzanne. I'm so glad we got to meet her. Bryan & Suzanne have 4 children already, now with Bryanna they have 5. She is sure surrounded by love. Three older brothers and one sister, all 7 and under. That sound like a whole lot of work. Also a whole lot of blessing. If you are curious about their family I have a link to their blog to your right.
Shawn and Sierra felt a connection with her right from the start. Sierra especially. Sierra also shares Bryanna's middle name, "Joy". What more can be said.

Shawn and the older boys are quite the buds. Caleb, on the right, requested a visit to his friends house (cousin really) for his birthday. How sweet. They live near Grand Rapids and we only see each other every 6 months or so.
The boys are wonderful caring big brothers for their new sister.
