Hearts Divided ... Love Multiplied

It is certain that our hearts have been expanding these past two days as we have cherished each moment with our little boys ... but it equally certain that our hearts are divided between this special time here and the time of separation from our kids at home. I just wish so much that we could bring the babies home and all be together as a family right now, but that is not the case and in the meantime I spoke with my sister tonight and learned that Isabel has been having a really rough time emotionally since we've been gone.

We love each of our children dearly and multiple times during our visit we have had those moments of thinking, "I wish Eva could see this!" or "Owen would love this!" or "I wish Isabel was here!" I hope they know this, and most of all that they understand that the miracle of a heart divided isn't less love to go around, but love multiplied ...

Thank you for sharing your journey, both physically and emotionally. It's a treasure to watch this all unfold. I will definitely stay tuned...and will be praying.

It cost a small fortune (really!) but our whole family went and worked at our O. My kids washed clothes for 125 kids by hand in tubs. They saw that the kids don't complain because they don't have the newest video games. It was really worth every cent. I have been two other times, once with both daughters and once with just one.
