We're Home!!!




Yes, we've made it back with our new family and we've been home a week. I went out to WA Sunday February 10th and Burt and the girls joined me on Wed. the 13th. What a wonderful Valentine's Day we'll never forget. I took us 3 planes to bet back but the kids did fantastic. We looked like little ducks all in a row following Burt in the different airports. Sorry its taken so long to write but time sure flies when you're having fun. The children are settling in and learning a lot, as we all are. I want to thank many wonderful friends and family members who have helped in so many ways. The house decorating, food, clothes, goodies & gifts, words of encouragement and taking the big girls to different activities has all been a wonderful blessing. I just pray that I've expressed how truly grateful I am to each and everyone. Several friends are planning a "Homecoming Party" for everyone to meet and greet the new children on Sunday April 6th. Details to follow later. We hope to see many of you there. Burt and I thank you all from the bottom of our hearts.

We're Going to Pick Up our Kids

The time has come for us to add to our family. God has been by our sides this whole way. At times I know we didnt realize that but looking back we can see it now. I'm leaving this Sunday 10th and will be back Mon.18th with our new precious children. Burt will be joining me with the girls on Wed. Please pray that everyone does well both physically, mentally, emotionally and spiritual. My prayer is that all my children's hearts will have peace and security. That they will not be afraid and that God will turn their hearts towards us. I've shared this with many of you but I am still in awe that out of the millions of children in the world God has chosen these children to be apart of our family. As with our bio children, He picked them and only them for us. WOW, I feel so honored and humbled. The journey that started 3 years ago has come to pass. We had no idea in the beginning that this is where God wanted us. Thank you all for your constant prayers and support. We are truely blessed.
