~Matthew 9:22~

Jesus turned around and spoke to her. "Daughter," He said, "all is well! Your faith has healed you."



Thank you Father for keeping Hope hear with us. For holding onto her hand two years ago and allowing her to become healthy again! You are an amazing God, created the universe and still care for us sinners. Thank you Father for my Sister!

Two Little Boys



My Little Brothers are so much fun! Buddy voice is starting to squeak, Little Man is getting so big and grown up and I can't believe it! Have you ever noticed the funny little things that boys say? Sometimes they can be so smart and so unexpectedly hilarious! One day, Little Man asked us where the "Windowdex" was. And at any given moment Buddy will have us bursting out laughing and in the end we will be crying!

HOPE

Encase you didn't know, we had our homestudy for our adoption on Tuesday! It all went really well and the caseworker was very nice! Just wanted to share that bit of information with you! Now the hardest part of the adoption is done!

Just as the daffodils bring us hope that the winter is soon to be over and Spring will come,
may we be able to bring hope to our two little ones!

"I Simply Think of My Favorite Things...

Noel working in Louisiana on the Carpenters for Christ Mission trpNoel and a good friend, a fireman who has come on the trips for many years.

Noel loves to do carpentry! Absolutely LOVES it!!! It is so much fun to work with her because she knows what she is doing. But she doesn't just do it because she is good at it, she does it because she loves it! She loves to teach others about the craftsmanship of carpentry, she is so patient, she makes it to where you can understand what she is trying to teach you.

Love and miss you Noel!

God Bless, Joy.
