Rachel

Rachel is doing wonderfully! She has adjusted very well to living with us and has bonded well with everyone. She bonded with Sandy almost instantly. She is doing well going to the babysitter and has not cried at all the last couple of days when she was left there. She is very happy and healthy and just remarkable. We can't believe how blessed we are with her. We pray that bringing Leah into the household will go well and that she will also adjust well. We know that there will be more issues with her since she is older and has had to deal with much more but we are all going to be here to love her and care for her. With God's help we can all become one big, happy family.

For God, who said, 'Let there be light in the darkness,' has made this light shine in our hearts so we could know the glory of God that is seen in the face of Jesus Christ.

Miracles Do Happen!

We just received word today that we have permission from the Embassy to travel and get Leah!!!! We do not know what has happened to clear up the paperwork and allow this. We are just thankful that it has happened. Please pray for us as we work out the logistics of it. Sandy is working a lot of overtime right now since this is her busy time at work and Mike just took off a week to go and get Rachel so we will need to sort all of that out and try to figure out how to bring another child into the household during this busy time but we know that God has it all in control.


I will praise you forever, O God, for what you have done. I will trust in your good name in the presence of your faithful people.

~ Psalm 52:9
