Praise God from Whom all blessings flow!!!



no idea what happened to this photo ?

How our God has been so very good to us!!! Our hearts are so full at what our Creator has done and continues to do in our home... We've been in the US a few days now with all six of our children. Albeit a bit difficult at times with our jet-lagged bodies and trying to juggle a home with SIX children!?!? (do we really have that many? : ) Overall, we've had a wonderful transition so far.

We got home from our sweet reunion at the airport just before midnight I think and the twins who had previously been acting zombiifed, the poor dears, after 40 or so hours of travel, perked up after a few minutes upon entering the front door and responded with great excitement at this 'whole new world'. We had planned a giant slumber party in the game room for the first night, so there were mattresses everywhere. What fun was had as the twins jumped around and discovered balls, bears, new PJ's and new siblings to play with. It was so sweet to see our birth kiddos be just as excited. Marion is our 'little Mama' who cannot get enough of her new siblings. She loves to dress and play with them (living dolls right? : )

The twins slept til 2:45 the first night, 3:30 the next, then 4:00. Each time they were led to the guest room bed with Mama or Papa and went back to sleep (within an hour or so). Last night, they slept the whole night through waking up at 6:30 (Kara) and Brandon at 7:30. Hooray!! We're making progress! : )

Gotta go. Everyone just got back from a run to Starbucks. The twin Baby Jogger we bought for Andrew and Marion as babies years ago is being used again! God is so good in His provision in so many ways! OK, time of quiet is over : ) Bring on the kids!!! Hope to write more later!
