Home!!!

We are home!! We are now a family of SEVEN!!  More to come later but we are all exhausted and in the midst of transitioning to this new normal.  Thanks for all the prayers and well wishes.

Freaky Friday

God has a plan.  One day I will accept this pre planning instead of post planning. 

Life is hectic right now.  We are still packing duffles for the trip to Addis.  We received lots of donations from friends and family plus our agency purchased over 30 cans of powder formula for the influx of malnurished infants.  We are so happy we can help but trying to get everything packed and keeping within the weight limits is a wee bit of a challenge. 

We are happy we will be traveling in a couple of days but continue to pray for all the other families still waiting, especially those we had the pleasure of meeting. We plan to take lots of pictures so they can see there little ones! 

On the home front, we have been blessed to have a contract on our house and have been inspected and appraised to every one's satisfaction.  And, as of today, we have a contract on a new house which will hold our new large brood.  We are hoping everything goes as planned so that we can celebrate Halloween in our new neighborhood. 

We appreciate all of your prayers and have been uplifted through all of the trials we have experienced over the last couple of months.   We will not have reliable Internet access in Ethiopia but comments are still welcome and prayers are especially needed as we travel and leave our little men behind.

God bless!
