To Be Continued...

Once our eyes are opened we can't pretend we don't know what to do. God, who weighs our hearts and keeps our souls, knows that we know, and holds us responsible to act.
Proverbs 24:12
Do not be afraid, for I am with you; I will bring your children from the east and gather you from the west....Bring my sons from afar and my daughters from the ends of the earth- everyone who is called by my name, whom I created for my glory, whom I formed and made.
Isaiah 43:5-7

Kristi said...

What sweet little toes and such expression in the eyes! The funny thing is I can still so clearly remember your mom on the bus in Guangzhou saying firmly that your family was done. I love how God changes our minds sometimes...

Pam said...

I can clearly remember saying that, too, Kristi!!!! And I was~ or so "I" thought!

Janet and Kevin said...

A glimpse of glory!! I can hardly wait to see the rest of the story!

Those Bible verses made my heart skip a beat! Exactly the way we felt when God called us to this newest adoption of our little Eli.

In Christ,
Janet, Kevin, Ted, Philip, and waiting for Eli

Praise God from whom all blessings flow. My vote is for a new baby brother. Are you going to tell us any time soon or are you going to continue to torture? :-)

They are moderated because you only want roses and sunshine.

Here's the fact. THOUSANDS of kids wait in America. Instead, your family buys two girls already from China and you're heading back for the third.

I think it's rather disgusting.

Amy said...

Those are some mighty cute little toes!

Heather said...

Jeanette said...

We had a blast with you guys at lunch yesterday! Your family is such a blessing to us and it is a joy to watch the Lord working through you all! Can't wait to see those eyes and toes in person!
