Escort for Leah


Please pray for us as we try to arrange an escort to bring Leah home. We are hopeful that we may be able to get a family that is traveling for their court date to at least escort her to where they live. This would greatly reduce the cost for us. Pray that God would provide the right family if this is his will so that we can get her home as soon as possible.

Let us hold tightly without wavering to the hope we affirm, for God can be trusted to keep his promise.

~ Hebrews 10:23

More Easter






Today we went to Sandy's family for Easter. Rachel got to have another Easter egg hunt and had a great time playing on the swings and slide. She also got to enjoy lots of new food that she had never tried before including vegetable dip and strawberries (not at the same time). She also had green kool-aid which made her a little hyper so I don't think we'll try that again for a while. She had a great time with more family. We just can't believe how well she has adjusted and fit right into our family.

He isn't here! He is risen from the dead, just as he said would happen. Come, see where his body was lying.

~ Matthew 28:6

Easter















We had a wonderful time at Mike's parents today celebrating Easter. It was Rachel's first Easter egg hunt. She had a great time and learned very quickly how to hunt for the eggs. All the kids had a wonderful time with her! We are looking forward to have Leah with us at the next holiday.



But God showed his great love for us by sending Christ to die for us while we were still sinners.

~ Romans 5:8
