Hallelujah!!! For the Lord God Almighty Reigns!!! Faithful and True is His Name!!!
Nate, Mercy, Isaiah and James are officially our children----orphans no more---- no one can snatch them out of our hands!!!
It has been a journey of total eyes wide open faith, completely led by the Word with every step we took-----and totally fueled by all of your faithful prayers!!!
There are simply no words to express the unspeakable joy in my heart right now, so I'll just introduce you to my beautiful children, born in my heart a year ago and delivered on January 12, 2010!

Elle made this video when she returned from Ethiopia this past summer. She was able to meet Nate and James, but couldn't tell them that she was their sister. My favorite
part of this video is when she picks up James and kisses him......makes me think of all the times when Jesus picked me up and kissed me before I knew who He was.
