It has been a great week. We are coming to the end of a very long few months of organizing and re-arranging. We have decided to take the month of August and focus on spending it as a family of 5 preparing for the changes ahead. It is very refreshing!
Our 16th anniversary was yesterday and we received new pix of the kids. They look great- except for Nadia. She looks sick to me. We pray that the Lord will heal her and/or get her medical treatment if necessary. This is all in the Lord's hands!
We recvd many great gifts yesterday. The kids decorated our house with balloons and gave us homemade cards. TOO CUTE! Dan and I had gifts for each other. I got t-shirts that said "I love my husband" and "I love my wife". We are so corny! We wore them to dinner and out for the evening. Dan got our triple crock pot that I think we will be needing. :)
We went out for dinner and then to an Ethiopian Art fair. The art was not that great but the people there were amazing. We mingled with other families who have adopted from Ethiopia. THeir kids were there and looked amazing. We both held back the tears as we spoke to a family that has been home for 10 days now with their 3. Each of the kids was as cute as ever and already saying "mama and papa." YEH for adoption.
We are now away for the weekend in our camper. We went wading in the river, took a nap, and played cards. Now time for a walk. It is beautiful--85 degrees. I miss the warmth.
If the Lord calls you, He will uphold you, guide you and get you were He needs you.
