OUR PLANS MULTIPLIED

In the beginning, JD adamantly only wanted two children. I thought that four would be perfect. Once we caught God's vision of putting orphans into families, our plan was multiplied by God. We are currently blessed with 12 children; five biological, six adopted and one more waiting in Ethiopia. Our first adoption was from the U.S., the next three were from Liberia, West Africa, and our last two were from Ethiopia. We are supporting our 12th child in Ethiopia after her adoption could not pass court.

Back on Track

Now that we are done working at the rental house, I am hoping that I can get life back on track at our house. We spent Friday finishing up details at the house and helping our friends that are moving in pack up their kitchen. As a HUGE blessing for us, we have other people that we know, and trust, lined up to move in once our friends move out in July. It will be so nice to have all this rental-turmoil behind us!

Here's my snap-shot of the last few days. Here's our barn kitties enjoying left-over carpet padding that was awaiting a trip to the garbage can.

Here's a perfect example of farm princess Julia. She has her ballerina outfit with mud boots, holding flowers while hanging out on a tractor attachment. The best of both worlds.

Elijah turned 20 months yesterday; time flies.

We need to take a walk everyday. Here we are heading to our walking road.

It's a blessing to have this area to walk, where seldom a car ever comes to meet my children and dogs all over the road.

I hope to be blogging more this week. I have a lot swirling in my head that hasn't had time to develop.
