I don't have much to report in the way of news for our boys, but what I do have is great ... The latest news from Haiti is that both boys are doing "Fabulous!" And you can't ask for better news than that! (:
I agree, that is FABULOUS! :) I don't know if I told you but our nephew Stephen's girlfriend is in Haiti right now on a mission trip. He was hoping to go, but couldn't for some reason. We will see him this weekend in Michigan so I'm going to ask him about what she is doing, where's she's going to be.... My sil said that over the last year or so they both have just had this burden for Haiti and wanting to at least go on some mission trips to there. They just started college so who knows how the Lord will lead them. I thought it would be neat if she was going to be visiting any orphanages if she would be where your boys are. I'll let you know where she is when I find out.
This blog was created to chronicle our family's journey to adopt our fourth child, a little boy from Haiti. Long before knowing him, we chose his name: Ian, meaning "God is gracious." Along the way our journey grew to include not only one, but two little boys from Haiti!
Ian and Alec finally arrived home on January 19, 2010.
