God has been gracious to us and has been with us through our journey of love and life. He has carried us through some of the most difficult times and has given us joy in the midst of sorrow. He has also been loving and given us abundant blessings. Most importantly, He has provided us with faith. May we share that faith with others.

"For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord, plans to give you hope and a future." Jeremiah 29:11
"God's gifts put man's best dreams to shame".

Lilly Update

My heart is singing today!  We got an update about our Lilly.  We learned that she received our care package.  I also know what size she is, so now I can start shopping for clothes for our trip!  She is 19 pounds and 29 inches.  After looking at the clothing chart, her measurements are just under the 12-18month clothing range.  She probably fits in 12 month clothing right now, but will most likely be in 18 month clothing this summer.  She seems to be doing well.  One of her care-taker's names is listed on her update.  Now, we can pray specifically for her.  We thank God for her and that she is giving Lilly love.  If things continue to go well, we will be holding this precious China doll in about a month!!!!

    Thank you Kelli! I would love to get together sometime. Life is a bit busy right now, but maybe we could get together once we get home from China and are settled.
