Our family has finally recovered from a yucky battle with the Flu. We are soooo very thankful for Tamiflu and the way it really helped the kids have very a mild case. I was not so blessed, got to the doc too late for the miraculous Tamiflu med....so I checked out of this world for 7 days. As I return to reality and computer blog world...I am thrilled to hear of fellow buddies and all the recent referrals. Congrats to the Thorne's, Roberts, and Farmboy and Buttercup.
Wishing I had my camera, we also recently had the awesome opportunity to have dinner with fellow DFW adoptive fams. We have the best, the best community of friends here in DFW. I got to hold the Frey's sweet Nathan....oh he is too cute! And we look forward to meeting the Lydick's beautiful new girl soon too. Check out their new families!!!
And as we welcome fellow bloggers and new friends back with their children, my favorite part is always to see the pictures. I love seeing how God has built their families and developed in each of them a love of Ethiopia. The pictures do a wonderful job telling each story of love. Below is I think my favorite picture so far (Amanda-is it OK that I post it here?) I love its simplicity and order. I love the closeness and innocence of these precious children. I love their uniforms...I think it is nap time at an orphanage Kindergarten age class. And I love to think of the love our Father has for each of these precious, precious lives. Thank you Jesus!
